[jQuery] Getting href attribute from parent element

[David]

I want to get the value from the href attribute from a parent element. 
My code is : $(this).parent().attr(href); , but this doesn't work. I 
don't understand it because for the same parent $(this).parent().html(); 
gives me the expected output.

Any thoughts on this ? Thank you.

David -

Can you provide an example where this occurs? It'll help me to debug the issue.
