Button onClick Handler Not Firing After Changes
Buttons that were previously clickable no longer trigger their onClick handlers after Cursor refactored the component code. Users click buttons but nothing happens.
Event handler binding or attachment may have been broken.
Error Messages You Might See
handleClick is not a function
Button click not working
No response to click
Event handler undefined
Common Causes
- onClick handler removed from JSX button element
- Handler function moved but not imported/referenced
- Handler function syntax changed (arrow vs function declaration)
- onClick handler wrapping code removed in refactoring
- Event handler 'this' context lost in class component
How to Fix It
Verify onClick is set: <button onClick={handleClick}>. Arrow functions preserve 'this': const handleClick = () => {}. In class, bind: this.handleClick = this.handleClick.bind(this). Check handler function exists and is imported.

Jacek Rozanski
Senior PHP/Symfony developer and DevOps engineer with 20+ years of professional experience, running opcode.pl (web development agency, est. 2004).
Day job: I'm the sole backend developer at merketing company where I own and maintain 11 PHP/Symfony microservices on AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, CloudFront), handle the full CI/CD pipeline (Bitbucket Pipelines, Docker), and manage monitoring with Sentry and CloudWatch. These services handle high request volumes in production every month.
What I bring to AI-built apps:
- I audit and fix security issues (OWASP methodology), performance bottlenecks, and architectural problems in codebases generated by Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, and v0
- I refactor AI-generated prototypes into production-grade applications with proper error handling, testing, and clean architecture (SOLID, DDD, hexagonal architecture)
- I set up the infrastructure AI tools don't touch: AWS hosting, CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, database optimization, monitoring, and alerting
- I integrate external services: payment providers, email systems, partner APIs, SSO/auth
Tech stack: PHP 8.x, Symfony, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Docker, AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, SQS/SNS, CloudFront), Terraform, Supabase. I also use AI tools daily (Claude Code, Cursor) in my own workflow, so I understand both the strengths and the gaps in AI-generated code.
Based in Poland (CET timezone). Available for async work and calls during EU/US business hours.

Caio Rodrigues
I'm a full-stack developer focused on building practical and scalable web applications. My main experience is with **React, TypeScript, and modern frontend architectures**, where I prioritize clean code, component reusability, and maintainable project structures.
I have strong experience working with **dynamic forms, state management (Redux / React Hook Form), and complex data-driven interfaces**. I enjoy solving real-world problems by turning ideas into reliable software that companies can actually use in their daily operations.
Beyond coding, I care about **software quality and architecture**, following best practices for componentization, code organization, and performance optimization.
I'm also comfortable working across the stack when needed, integrating APIs, handling business logic, and helping transform prototypes into production-ready systems.
My goal is always to deliver solutions that are **simple, efficient, and genuinely useful for the people using them.**

How do I pass arguments to onClick?
Use arrow function: onClick={() => handleClick(arg)}. Or bind in constructor.
Why is 'this' undefined in my handler?
Bind it: onClick={this.handleClick.bind(this)} or use arrow function in class.
