I've just barely started getting my feet wet with jquery, so please bear with this novice's question...
With a javascript function you can accept vars like this: function doSomething(number, name) { //Do something with them } >From an href in the HTML like this: <a href="javascript:doSomething('1234','john');>Click me</a> But I have no idea how this is accomplished with jquery as it all seems "internal" to itself (seemingly dealing only with identifying HTML tags, ids, and classes, and not user-supplied vars). I'm sure I'm wrong on this... I had started to build out a page that will be using multiple show/ hide toggles for individual divs/ids and the jquery examples I was finding all seemed more long-winded than just using my original javascript function, so I'm hoping that this would considerably simplify the process, but, more importantly, keep it native to jquery's functions. Any suggestions?
