This issue was introduced by the changes in PR #69 on line [156](https://github.com/dibari/angular-ellipsis/blob/master/src/angular-ellipsis.js#L156). The `find` method is used to locate the `span` for the custom click action. However, as mentioned in the AngularJS documentation, the `find` method in jqLite is limited to only [tag names](https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/function/angular.element), and therefore this doesn't work anymore for apps that don't load the full jQuery. A way to fix this would be to use `querySelector`: ``` javascript angular.element(element[0].querySelector('span.angular-ellipsis-append')) .bind(... ```
