Question

I have html scheme like

<li>Some text <a href='#' class='click'>Remove</a> <input type='hidden' ></li>

And i have OnClick function like

$(".click").click(function() {
    // i need to select 'li' and then delete it
    // i have this code, but its not working
    $(this).prev('li').remove();
    return false;
});

How do I Select previous html tag onClick ?

Answer 1

li is not the previous element, but the parent:

$(".click").click(function () {
    $(this).parent().remove();
    return false;
});
