howto catch jQuery for multiple links but not all
- by user247245
I'm trying to dig into jQuery but would like some feedback on how to do things the best way,
I have a list with items, which each contains a hidden div that should show upon click on it's parent,
list
div:ed item1 with link
hidden div
div:ed item2 with link
hidden div
..
My current solution is to trace the calling link by it's id and then reusing that ID for showing the correct hidden one:
$(document).ready(function() {
//jQ should only trigger on links with id="cmLinkINT"
$("a").click(function() {
//see if it's a comment request.
var s = $(this).attr("id");
if (s.indexOf('cmLink') != -1) {
//ok, it was a 'show'-link, get the id..
var j = s.substring(6);
//ok, now I have the id i want to show (detailsINT)
return false;
}
});
});
What's not clear to me is the best approach,
Should I use id for requesting a or trace the id of the parent div.
How to avoid that the code triggers on any link? Class?
Thankful for any feedback,
regards
