JQUERY, Returning the object that was clicked to add a Class

Given the following:

<div id="table-filters">
    <ul>
        <li class="active" onclick="myfunc();">blah</li>
        <li onclick="myfunc();">blah</li>
        <li onclick="myfunc();">blah</li>
        <li onclick="myfunc();">blah</li>
    </ul>
</div>

function myfunc() {
// Activate the LI clicked
$(this).addClass("active");
}

I would lik开发者_运维问答e my JQUERY to work as follows. Add class="active" to whatever LI is clicked.

Remove your onClick calls from the HTML, and then place the following in your .js file:

$("#table-filters li").click(function(){
  $(this).addClass("active").siblings("li.active").removeClass("active");
  // requested in comments: how to get id of LI clicked?
  var thisID = $(this).attr("id");
});

---

$("#table-filters li").click(function(){
  $("#table-filters li.active").removeClass("active"); // remove current active
  $(this).addClass("active"); // set new active

  // Put more stuff here that you want to happen when clicked.

});

Adding an event listener using this method is generally considered the "good" way, adding a listener using onlick="BLAH" is considered a bad way.

You don't need to use .click(...); instead you can do it the way you want to do it like this:

<div id="table-filters">
    <ul>
        <li class="active" onclick="myfunc(this);">blah</li>
        <li onclick="myfunc();">blah</li>
        <li onclick="myfunc();">blah</li>
        <li onclick="myfunc();">blah</li>
    </ul>
</div>

function myfunc(li) {
// Activate the LI clicked
$(li).addClass("active");
}
