is there anyway to get the class when click event is fired. My code as below, it only work for id but not class.
This will contain the full class (which may be multiple space separated classes, if the element has more than one class). In your code it will contain either "konbo" or "kinta":
event.target.className
You can use jQuery to check for classes by name:
$(event.target).hasClass('konbo');
and to add or remove them with addClass and removeClass.
If you are using jQuery 1.7:
alert($(this).prop("class"));
or:
alert($(event.target).prop("class"));
Careful as target
might not work with all browsers, it works well with Chrome, but I reckon Firefox (or IE/Edge, can't remember) is a bit different and uses srcElement. I usually do something like
var t = ev.srcElement || ev.target;
thus leading to
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a").click(function(ev) {
// get target depending on what API's in use
var t = ev.srcElement || ev.target;
alert(t.id+" and "+$(t).attr('class'));
});
});
Thx for the nice answers!
Try:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a").click(function(event) {
alert(event.target.id+" and "+$(event.target).attr('class'));
});
});
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a").click(function(event) {
var myClass = $(this).attr("class");
var myId = $(this).attr('id');
alert(myClass + " " + myId);
});
})
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.2.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="#" id="kana1" class="konbo">click me 1</a>
<a href="#" id="kana2" class="kinta">click me 2</a>
</body>
</html>
This works for me. There is no event.target.class function in jQuery.
You will get all the class in below array
event.target.classList
