[jQuery] trouble passing href

[Kierhon]

Hi all, new to JQ. I'm trying to pass the href from the <a> tag to the
ajax load function. I believe i've selected the child properly but for
some reason it's not pulling in the href. Any help is greatly
appreciated!

site: new-age-design.com
code:

<?php include('includes/header.php'); ?>

<div id="header">
<div class="container">
        <h1><a href="index.php">Site In Development</a></h1>

    <ul>
        <li><a href="#" style="color:#000;">Link</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Link</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Link</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Link</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Link</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Link</a></li>
    </ul>

</div>
</div>



<div class="container">
        <script type="text/javascript">
        function passURL(url){
                var ajaxURL = document.getElementById("test").href;
                alert (ajaxURL);
        };

        if(typeof sIFR == "function") {
                sIFR.replaceElement(
                        named({
                                sSelector:              "h1 , dt a span",
                                sFlashSrc:              
"flash/bleeding_cowboys.swf",
                                sColor:                 "<?php 
echo("$h1_color"); ?>",
                                sLinkColor:             "<?php 
echo("$h1_color"); ?>",
                                sHoverColor:    "<?php echo("$h1_hover"); ?>",
                                sWmode:                 "transparent",
                                nPaddingTop:    0,
                                nPaddingBottom: 0
                                })
                );
        };

        $(document).ready(function(){
                // $("dd:not(:first)").hide();
                $("dt").click(function(){
                        // $("dd:visible").slideUp("slow");
                        alert ($(this).children().href);

                        $(this).next().load("test.xml").slideDown("slow");
                        return false;
                });
        });
        </script>

    Currently, in Saint Johns, MI the weather is: <?php
echo("$weather"); ?>

<dl>
        <dt><a id="test" href="test.xml"><span>Div1</span></a></dt>
        <dd>Test Info</dd>

        <dt><a href="/discuss/">Div2</a></dt>
        <dd>
        Test Info<br /><br />
        </dd>

        <dt><a href="/dev/">Div3</a></dt>
        <dd>
        Test Info<br /><br />
        </dd>
</dl>
