Nodejs javascript added to button not responding

I hope this helps you . I have created a custom tableviewcell through interface builder with a label and a button. In the .h and .m file I have made outlets and actions for the button which I have connected. This cell is added to a tableview controlled by a uiviewcontroller class. However my problem is that when I tap the button, the button is not activated, however I am pushed on to the detailed view belonging to the cell. It seems like the button is behind the cell. , try
[cell.contentView addSubview:button];

this will help The ID's needs to be unique, so if you create a lot of elements, either make ID's unique or use classes or data-id attribute to recognize which box is which - in the example in codepen i showed you how to create ID's with simple counter variable, that is available in this scope (remember about closures).
What you did in your code is only appending a new structure to DOM, there is no event handlers/hooks attached to this element, that's why you either need to create new event handler/hooks when adding the element to the DOM, or after, in my example, i will to it before adding the element to the DOM.

 $(".main").find('.button').on('click',function(){
   // this looks weak, plus anonymous function doesn't tell you what it does
});

$(".main").find('.button').on('click',makeButtonWork);

function makeButtonWork(){
  //this looks much better, plus you named the function and you know the purspose of it, without looking through code
}

around this issue Try loading scripts at the end of your snippet. listjs library is expecting DOM to be loaded before you can create new List.

<div id="users">
  <input class="search" placeholder="Search" />
  <button class="sort" data-sort="name">
    Sort by name
  </button>

  <ul class="list">
    <li>
      <h3 class="name">Jonny Stromberg</h3>
      <p class="born">1986</p>
    </li>
    <li>
      <h3 class="name">Jonas Arnklint</h3>
      <p class="born">1985</p>
    </li>
    <li>
      <h3 class="name">Martina Elm</h3>
      <p class="born">1986</p>
    </li>
    <li>
      <h3 class="name">Gustaf Lindqvist</h3>
      <p class="born">1983</p>
    </li>
  </ul>
</div>

<script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/list.js/1.5.0/list.min.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">

var options = {
  valueNames: [ 'name', 'born' ]
};

var userList = new List('users', options);

</script>

I hope this helps . Am new to Javascript and was following this tutorial here , You need to wrap with $(document).ready() in order to make it work:

$(document).ready(function() {
  $("#btn-login").click(function() {
    console.log("It's working");
  });
});

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.4.1.min.js"></script>

<button id="btn-login" type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Login</button>

$(document).on('click', '#btn-login', function() {
  console.log("It's working");
});

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.4.1.min.js"></script>

<button id="btn-login" type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Login</button>
