jquery - get an html attribute from within a function call

I'm trying to call a different tooltip according to an anchor tag's id attribute. My JavaScript code is as follows:

$(function()
{
   $('.tippy').qtip(
   {
      content: {
          url: "http://mydomain.com/product/mini/" + $(this).attr("id") // doesn't work
      },

      hide: { when: 'mouseout', fixed: true },

       position: {
         corner: {
            target: 'bottomRight',
            tooltip: 'topLeft'
   开发者_运维技巧      }
      }
   });

});

my html code looks like this:

<div>this is the text and I would like to reference the <a href="product.php" class="tippy" id="123456">superproduct</a> with qtip.</div>

I'm pretty stuck, could you give me a hand please?

Use each():

$('.tippy').each(function() {  
   $(this).qtip({
          content: {
              url: "http://mydomain.com/product/mini/" + $(this).attr("id")
          },
          hide: { when: 'mouseout', fixed: true },   
          position: {
             corner: {
                target: 'bottomRight',
                tooltip: 'topLeft'
             }
          }
   });
)};

The reason why $(this) does not work in your code is simple: It is not inside a function call (at least not where this should refer to a .tippy element). $(this).attr() is executed when you construct the object that is passed to qtip(). That means it is in the same context as $('.tippy') and therefore this most probably refers to window.
