Hi I have a simple question. From a click event, how do I find out
what element triggered it? In delphi there was a property called
"sender" which was the sender.
Heres an example of what I'm doing:
jQuery('#buttonA, #buttonB').bind('click', function()
{
if sender is buttonA
do something
else
do something else.
});
I would like it to be the same function just in one part it has to do
one thing if the sender is something otherwise it does something
else. Thanks!

I do not know delphi but this sounds similar:
<body>
<input type="button" id="buttona" name="buttona" value="Button A"
onclick="dosomething(this)">
<input type="button" id="buttonb" name="buttonb" value="Button B"
onclick="dosomething(this)">
<script>
function dosomething(o) {
if(o.id == "buttona") {
do something
} else {
do something else
}
}
</script>
</body>

If you want information specifically about jQuery, ask in a jQuery
forum. If you want to know how to do it generically using javascript,
then this is the place.
{
if sender is buttonA
do something
else
do something else.
});

The event object related to the click event has properties of either
target (W3C event model) or srcElement (IE event model).
There is a good introduction to events at the link below that will
give you enough to get started:

Unfortunately I cant pass in the object as a parameter to the call.
The click function takes no parameters.

Thanks Rob. Let me try the srcElement property.

As others have noted the W3C standard Event [1] interface has a
'target' property. IE's event [2] however doesn't support it but
has a 'srcElement' serving the same purpose. As you seem to use
jQuery you may take a look at its documentation [3]. There you'll
find it normalizes this difference allowing you to use it uniformly.

You're wrong. Check with your documentation
<http://docs.jquery.com/Events/click#fn>:
Arguments:
fn Function
A function to bind to the click event on each of the matched
elements.
function callback(eventObject) {
this; // dom element
}

This will break with a TypeError in !(MSHTML || Opera) because `event'
cannot be resolved. [...]
Correction: It will be a ReferenceError.

In jQuery I believe it is:
$(this)
I can't find the exact documentation page but I've seen it in some of
the examples like: http://docs.jquery.com/Events/bind#typedatafn
