Jquery- Get the value of first td in table
- by Jerry
Hello.
I am trying to get the value of first td in each tr when a users clicks "click".
The result below will output aa ,ee or ii. I was thinking about using clesest('tr')..but it always output "Object object". Not sure what to do on this one. Thanks.
My html is
<table>
<tr>
<td>aa</td>
<td>bb</td>
<td>cc</td>
<td>dd</td>
<td><a href="#" class="hit">click</a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ee</td>
<td>ff</td>
<td>gg</td>
<td>hh</td>
<td><a href="#" class="hit">click</a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ii</td>
<td>jj</td>
<td>kk</td>
<td>ll</td>
<td><a href="#" class="hit">click</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
Jquery
$(".hit").click(function(){
var value=$(this).// not sure what to do here
alert(value) ;
});
