Fancybox: Get id of clicked anchor/element

rated 0 times [ 86] [ 2] / answers: 1 / hits: 19641 / 14 Years ago, wed, june 2, 2010, 12:00:00

I am trying to get the id of the clicked/shown element in fancybox. I have tried both this.id and this.attr(id) - but none of them works.

$(a.lightbox_image).fancybox({

            'transitionIn': 'elastic',

            'transitionOut': 'elastic',

            'speedIn': 600,

            'speedOut': 200,

            'content': 'Id of element clicked'+this.attr(id)

 });

Any suggestions?

You can do it like this:

$(a.lightbox_image).each(function() {

  $(this).fancybox({

        'transitionIn': 'elastic',

        'transitionOut': 'elastic',

        'speedIn': 600,

        'speedOut': 200,

        'content': 'Id of element clicked' + this.id

  });

});

this refers probably to window where you're binding currently (or document if in the ready event, can't be sure without seeing more code). For this to be the <a> like you want, you should use a .each() loop and assign it there...inside the .each() closure, this refers to the anchor.
