Question

When handling events with multiple selectors, such as:

$('.item a, .another-item a').click(function(e) {

});

Is it possible to determine which parent selector triggered the event? Was it .item or .another-item ?

Thank you!

Answer 1

Since a selector can be just about anything, you’d have to check for specific, such as:

if($(this).is('.item a')){
  //your code here
} else if ($(this).is('.another-item a')){
  //more here
}
