I am dynamically adding items to an ul when a page loads.
addUsersToDropdown = (user_markers) ->
console.log("inside addUsersToDropdown")
for marker in user_markers
console.log("adding name to dropdown , name = #{marker.name}")
jQuery("#user_list").append("<li><a onclick='return false;' href='#'> <img alt=\"#{marker.name}\" src=\"#{marker.gravatar_url}\" /> #{marker.name}</a></li>")
How do I figure out which item the user selected? Everything I have seen seems to require you know the id before hand. ie
jQuery('#some_id')
Add a click event to every one of your link messages - this
will refer to the <a>
tag. Which you can use to do what you want with.
$("#user_list a").click(function() {
// this holds the item that was clicked.
alert($(this).html());
});
Example: http://jsfiddle.net/KXGtt/
$("$user_list li").click(function() {
console.log(this.index);
}
