determine which item a user has clicked on in a list component

[Terry Gilliver]

Hi,

Hope you are all well...

I have a list component populate from a database collection. I have gave a name of 'category' and I have worked out by viewing the source at run-time that each item is labelled category_0, category_1 etc. The question is can I determine which item the user has clicked, so that I can write javascript which caters differently for each item.

Thanks,

Terry

Hello Terry,

Yes, you can do it with JavaScript. You can get selected item label value with this code on click event:

code$(this).find("[name=labelName]").text(); /code

where labelName is your label component name.

Thanks,

you pointed me in the right direction, infact all I needed was
code
var category = $(this).text();
/code
