Make marker message/label clickable? about ui-leaflet

Hi, you have to compile the message as it contains dynamic HTML, so it must be re-parsed by angular.

Take a look at threads on stackoverflow.com talking about this. There's must be an easy way for sure:

Hope it helps.

I'll check out the links and thanks for answering both of my last two posts!

Am I approaching this problem incorrectly? All I want to do is to make the marker's label clickable. Seems like something that other people would want too, right?

Hi,

In case someone's looking for a solution to this issue:

// Here we are manually creating DOM that is not compiled by AngularJS
var title = '<span><a ng-click="hello()">' + Hello, World! + '</a> - <b>item1</b><br />item2</span>';

// Compile title DOM into a link function
var linkFn = $compile(angular.element(title));
// Return a jQuery DOM tree fully controlled by AngularJS so that ng directives will work
var popup = linkFn(scope);

var mark = L.marker(new L.LatLng(item.lat, item.lng));
// We can only display a DOM node (bug with leaflet?) so this is why we use <span>...</span> as a parent node
mark.bindPopup(popup[0]);
...
scope.hello = function() {
    alert('Hello, World!');
};

The ng-click directive's working now!
