I have a page with several div's. All of the divs have a unique id. I would like to send that id to a javascript function. I have tried to save it as a value as well, and send this.value, but that does not work either.
<div class='recordElem$val' id='$rname' value='$rname'
onclick='javascript:updateRecord(this.value);'>
$name</div>"
Here is a jQuery answer
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function clicked(item) {
alert($(item).attr("id"));
}
</script>
<div onclick="clicked(this);" id="test">test</div>
Have a look at two ways to solve this problem
<html>
<body>
<div id="scopeId" onclick="javascript:testScope.call(this)">Using scope</div>
<div id="parameterId" onclick="javascript:testId(this.id)">Using Parameter</div>
<script>
function testScope(){
alert("Scope: " + this.id)
}
function testId(id){
alert("Parameter: " + id)
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
Use onclick="updateRecord(this)" and handle it like this:
function updateRecord(div) {
// statements
var id = div.id; // or however you want to use the id
// statements
}
You can assign php variables value to javascript variable value. Then you can use it onclick example:
<script language="javascript">
var a=<?php echo $tabs['menu_id']; ?>
</script>
<a href="index.php" onclick="show_center(a);">pass it</a>
Here we can pass javascript's variable to function.
