Backbone.js: Keeping track of the element you insert into the DOM at render time
// pass in the $parentEl in the options so you can reference it.
render: function () {
this.$el = $(this.template({
...
})).appendTo(this.$parentEl);
// Call delegateEvents() afterwards if you have
// events in your view you want bound to the
// new this.$el
this.delegateEvents();
}
