Question

I have the following code

Inside Link which sets a value



        

Answer 1

data-value is a good attribute. but.. You can also add a " rel " attribute to your anchor tag. it describes the relation to the document where the link points to. And you can also use it to store a value.

Like This -

$("a").click(function(){
 var page = $(this).attr('rel'); // save the attribute value here

 sessionStorage.setItem("text",page);

/*save it in session storage if you want to send (or retrieve) this value to another page. 
if not then use it easily without saving it in session storage*/

 //Use it here 

 return false; // to stop the redirection if  contains a link
});
