jQuery - Add click event to Div and go to first link found
- by LuckyShot
Hi guys,
I think I've been too much time looking at this function and just got stuck trying to figure out the nice clean way to do it.
It's a jQuery function that adds a click event to any div with a click CSS class found in the page and when clicked it redirects the user to the first link found in the div.
function clickabledivs() {
$('.click').each(
function (intIndex) {
$(this).bind("click", function(){
window.location = $( "#"+$(this).attr('id')+" a:first-child" ).attr('href');
});
}
);
}
The code simply works although I'm pretty sure there is a fairly better way to accomplish it, specially the selector I am using: $( "#"+$(this).attr('id')+" a:first-child" ) looks too long and slow. Any ideas?
Please let me know if you need more details.
Thanks!
