Above you can see my DOM , how do I get to the input from the a tag as shown below. Note that the portion is repeated multiple times as it is derived from a repeater control.

I did post a similar question earlier , which I have flagged for deletion as the question seems to be confusing.

The target is a hidden field, and assume that I only know that the ID is suffixed with “AID”. So how can i select it ?

here is what i have tried , but i know its wrong though

var AnsID = $('*:hidden:first[id*="AID"]').prev("div");

any help appreciated guys. thanks!

    $(this).prev('div').children('input[id*="AID"]:hidden:first');

    Where this is the a tag.

    As you can see, I select the previous div element, then I access the first hidden input child that contains aid in the id attribute.

    This should work.
