how can i extract text after hash # in the href part from a tag?

Question

I have following a tags:

Any tab1 Label
tab2 Label
Any tab3 Label<         


        

Answer 1

function tellMyName() {
    var str = this.href.split("#")[1];
    alert(str);
}

Not all the time only the hash part will be displayed on the link. Sometimes the Host is added to the href. By splitting the href with the hash (#) and get the second part of the split string, you'll get what you want.

Answer 2

function tellMyName() {
  alert(this.hash.replace('#',''));
}

$('a').click(tellMyName);

crazy fiddle

Answer 3

function tellMyName() {
    var str = this.prop("hash").substr(1)
    alert(str);
}

this.prop("hash") will return the hash value i.e #tab1

Answer 4

You can use something like this:

...
var activeTab = $(this).attr("href");
$(activeTab).fadeIn();
...

This use href="#tab-id" for locate #tab-id element you want, and fade in.

Answer 5

<script>
function tellMyName()
{
    var text = this.href;
    text = text.replace("#","");
    alert(text);
}

</script>
