jquery - get the class of the parent html element -


hi guys i'm trying class of parent element of element clicked

ex:

<div class="mydiv"><a href="#" class="link">click me</a></div>  

i want class of parent div(mydiv)

i tried didn't work:

$(document).ready(function(){ $(".link").click(function(){ var div=$(this).parent().classname; alert(div); }); }); 

it gives me (undefined). 1 can help?

.parent() gives jquery object , classname property of dom element try:

var div=$(this).parent()[0].classname; // use [0] dom element , property 

or

var div= $(this).parent().attr("class"); //use jquery attr value of attribute class
