try adding onclick event like this

function updateDiv() {  $("#here").load(window.location.href + " #here");
$("#here").attr("onclick","alert()");
}

function alert(){

alert(" hello world !");
}

You can use passive event listener to keep them even if the element is created/destroyed/reloaded at runtime

function updateDiv() {  $("#here").load(window.location.href + " #here");}



$("#here").on("click", () => { alert(" hello world !") })
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="here">here</div>
<button onclick="updateDiv()">Click here</button>
