MeteorJS: How to get clicked element

Question

I\'m trying to get the clicked element so that I can add class. Does Meteor provides any way to get the current element like jQuery $ (this)

Template.retrain         


        

Answer 1

To get the element on which the event occurred, use event object.

event.target

As you've jQuery included, you can wrap the element in jQuery to use jQuery methods on it.

$(event.target)

You can see this in Meteor Tutorial

Answer 2

From this you can get textbox value with one button click event.

Try this:

Template.retraining.events({
'click .myclass':function(e,t){
 var val = t.find(".classname").value;
}
