Question

How to get value and index of list item onClick event with jQuery?

Answer 1

If you had set a value attribute for your li:

    

    
Item 1
    
Item 2
    
Item 3
    
Item 4
    

, then you can retrieve it using jQuery like this:

$('#uItem li').click(function(){
    var $this = $(this);
    var selKeyVal = $this.attr("value");
    alert('Text ' + $this.text() + 'value ' + selKeyVal);
})
