jsFiddle

I’m trying the get the ID of a button using $(this).id, but it’s coming up as undefined. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for reading.

EDIT: Code from jsFiddle example:

HTML

<button id='remove_button' type='button'>Remove</button>​

jQuery

$('#remove_button').mouseup(function(){
     alert($(this).id);
});​

    $(this)

    Gives you a reference to a jQuery object. You can either use the attr() function like Mario says, or even just do this:

    this.id
