Question

I bind click to a series of asp:hyperlink via the following jquery

$(".dummyIdentifier").click(function () {
            $("#divLineItemComments").dialog("open");
            return false;
        });

This works fine. Now, I need to pass the value of Hyperlink.NavigateUrl OnClick. So that I may include the values with ajax $.get()

How can I get the value of a clicked hyperlink? I do not know it’s ID as the hyperlinks are generated dynamically along with their names by ASP.NET.

        <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Notes" ItemStyle-CssClass="NoMargin NoPadding" SortExpression="lineNotes">
            <ItemTemplate>
                <asp:HyperLink id="notesHl" runat="server" text='<%# Bind("lineNotes") %>' Font-Underline="true" Font-Bold="true" CssClass="dummyPhysicalNoteIdentifier"></asp:HyperLink>
            </ItemTemplate>
            <ItemStyle Font-Size="Smaller" Height="10px" Width="10px" Wrap="True" />
        </asp:TemplateField>

You can do it like this:

$(".dummyIdentifier").click(function () {
    $("#divLineItemComments").dialog("open");

    var url = $(this).attr('href');

    return false;
 });
