@ripple:
'.showlayer' = selector
'#div1' = the thing I want to fade in when you click the selector.
There are lots of divs and one class, '.showlayer' for all of the fade
triggers.
My question was: How do I get jQuery to know which div to fade in, by
looking at the href for the selector that was clicked?
Two good answers provided, both illustrating how to get a target out
of the href attribute.
@David:
Thank you, that helped me understand what Ariel's solution was
doing :))
