Newbie question

Hi all. I've looked through the jQuery docs and searched this forum, but haven't figured out the answer to, what is probably, a trivial question:
How do you return (in this case for display in an "alert") the name of a tag that is clicked on?
That is, if I have a .click(function()) linked to a particular DIV, or LI, etc how can I display an alert that says "You clicked on a DIV" (where "DIV" is retrieved from $(This) I would guess).
Hope this make sense.

TIA,
Laker
