javascript - How to implement a generic click event for anchors -
currently have php script throws out bunch of buttons(format in case needed is
<a class="classinfo" id="id">name</a>
the file retrieved dynamically , there can many buttons possible, maybe none , maybe million(unlikely though). anyways javascript. need use javascript , cant redirect user website(mostly because operation repeated heavily , gets extremely tedious..).
is possible me use combination of javascript + jquery detect button pressed , operation appropriately?
example of hoping this: user clicks 1 of buttons(which has unique id number). javascript detects button clicked(i cant use fixed code number of buttons , ids can change whenever feel it). javascript send out ajax request , fancy operations(i got part covered).
now possible me detect button clicked? struggling this.
the target
property of event object tell element clicked on.
document.addeventlistener('click', function (e) { var target = e.target; if (target.tagname && target.tagname.tolowercase() == "a") { alert(target.id); } });
