jQuery Forum

well, jquery makes it easy to respond to an event on a specific element.  in your case, you'd want to write code that handles an anchor tag click.  you can do this with:

$('a').click(function(e){

      e.preventDefault();

    //your code here

});

also, to make sure you address the correct anchor tag element, you will use $(this) to reference it in your click() method. here's a quick demo i made for you that shows how to use $(this) inside the click method.

inside this call to showInfo, you’ll have access to the magical this which is the a in question.

PS if you need help modifying XSL, I can help!

This changes the JavaScript call to showInfo into a jQuery call. In other words, you get to use this inside the showInfo function to get to the the link.

PS it works in webkit, firefox, and opera. IE you would have to check.
