[jQuery] Re: Click to call a fuction?

[Mitchell Waite]

I think I get this but when you say "if you can find the object" what do you
mean by "find". That the object exists and you know its ID?

Also, if its multiple images, you can give the images a class or find them
in any CSS way.
So if you can find the object, any object using CSS, then you can use that
in jQuery.

$("img").click...
$(" div.someContainer img").click...
$("img.classOfImage").click...
$("img:first").click //gets the very first one
$("img:even".click //gets every other one

Check out the "selectors" on the jQuery page...very powerful and fun stuff.

Is there a way to call a jQuery function when someone clicks on an image
without making that image a hyperlink.

 

If that is the only way is there something you can put in the href to
eliminate the border that hyperlinks make.

 

Thanks

PS I posted this as a question from Goofy last night and no one answered it.
Perhaps now that my status has been so graciously elevated and I am planning
a jQuery for Dummies book, someone might help me. Here is the previous
question

 

Why won't this work. It's so simple. I just want to call a function using
the on lick event. I want it to move a div called Panel.

 

I set up the function

 

                                function advmode() (

 
$("#Panel").SlideInRight(1000);

                                };

 

Then inside a table cell with an image for a button I have this simple link

 

                                <a href="#Javascript;"
onclick="advmode()"><img src="images/Advanced Search Button Wide_No.png"
width="250" height="25" />

 

I must be missing something really basic because this does not come close to
working. But this does:

 

                                <a href="#Javascript;"
id="PanelButtonOpen2"><img src="images/Advanced Search Button Wide.png"
width="250" height="25" />

 

                                $('#PanelButtonOpen2').click(function() {

                                $("#Panel").SlideOutRight(1000);

                                });

 

Thanks for any aid I am feeling very silly tonight.
