@Juan
$("a").html()  is always returning text of first <a>, here "tata"
@ziz
alert($(this).text()); works, thanks.
Why return false?

Try this way:

   $("a").click( function( )
       {
               alert($(this).text());
               return false;
       });

What I want to is :When user click on a link it will show text inside
the <a> tag. (ie. when user click in "more" it will show "more" in
alert.)
I have following code :
---------
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/
TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>jq test</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
$("a").click( function( )
{
alert($("a").val()); // shows error
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="#">tata</a>
<a href="#">test</a>
<a href="#">more</a>
</body>
</html>
-----------
When I run this code it shows following error.
TypeError: this[0].value has no properties
at anonymous(void) (test/jq/js/jquery.js:335)
at anonymous() (test/jq/alinks.htm:13)
