I know I can use the following, and it will work, but is there
something similar in jQuery that's already available?
$('a').click(function() {
a = this;
$.ajax({
url: this.href,
success: function(data) {
alert(a.href);
}
})
});
That's the way people do it in jQuery, although often people will use the
variable "self" or "that". AFAIK there isn't a specific method in jQuery to
do what you are referring to. Also you might want to do "var a = this" so
that it doesn't conflict with any global variables.
