Help with assigning an attr to a variable
Hi.
Ive just started taking some javascript and jquery lessons and we have been assigned a little project: an image galery.
so i came up with the following:
when i click any button with the class "thumbnail", i want to set the src of the thumbnail to a variable, and then set that variable as the src of the main image (#imggrande").
I am having trouble finding an answer on how to assign the src of the image clicked to the variable.
$(".thumbnail").on("click", function() {
var imgpath = ?????
$("#imggrande").attr("src", imgpath)
});
As i am typing this, i just figured the variable is pretty redundant, i could just put whatever i would type to assign the variable in the src attribute, right?
is there is a simpler way to do this?
thank you
