the markup being used is the way metadata plugin stores data. If you
already have this data marked up like this the metadata plugin is easy
to use to extract it

data() does not look for an actual "data" attribute string value on
the DOM.
You have to set it with data(), like:
$("#myElement").data('name', 'foo-bar');
and get it with:
$("#myElement").data('name');
The second argument (value) is not limited to a string. You can use
objects, etc.

Additionally, "2009-08-2816C213" is not a valid class name. Class
names cannot begin with a number.

Hi!
i'm trying to store some additional information only useful for my
_javascript_. I thought i could use a data html attribute to do that but
it does not seem to work: console.log() returns "undefined"
here is the relevant extract of my code, in case i did something
wrong:
<tr>
<td><div class="event 2009-08-2816C213" style="float:left;width:
65px" data="">
<div class="event-title"><span
class="classe">C213</span> - <span class="Prof">2TID1</span></div>
</td>
</tr>
_javascript_: (document ready)
$('div.event').each(function(){
console.log('eventlength= '+$(this).data('eventLength'));
});
that returns "undefined".
