$("button").click(function(){
    $("body").append("<p></p>")
    for (i=0; i<5; i++){
        $("#t1").append("<tr></tr>");
    }
    for (i=0; i<5; i++){
        $("#t1 tr").append("<td></td>");
    }
    for (i=0; i<25; i++){
        var z = Math.round((Math.random()*89)+10);
        $("#t1 tr td").eq(i).text(z);
    }
});

$("td").click(function(){

  • What HTML are you working with? Are there any errors? @dotnetom: I'm not sure about that dupe, I may be tired and missing something, but it seems that the `` elements are being created after the ` – David Thomas Jun 07 '16 at 19:23

Instead of the regular .click() method, you should use .on() on an element that already exists, but that will contain the td later, for example $(document) or the table your cells will appear in.

$(document).on('click', 'td', function() {
    //code here
});
