Question

If my code is laid out like so,

<div data-page-index="1" class="active">
    <img src="foo.png" />
</div>

how do I set a variable to the image path if i only have the div class, for example

var image1 = $('.active').find(img);

so I can append that image whenever neccessary?

Answer 1

Get the src attribute from, in this case the first instance of, your image.

var image1 = $(".active").children("img").eq(0).attr("src");
