Here is my basic backbone view for changing routes. I would like to get the href attribute of the clicked link. How to do that? Here is a code bellow:
var Menu = Backbone.View.extend({
el: '.nav',
events: {
'click a' : 'changeRoute'
},
changeRoute: function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
//var href = $(this).attr("href");
router.navigate(href, true);
}
});
I am a newbie in backbone, so please have mercy :)
you can use: var element = $(e.currentTarget);
then any attributes can be called like this: element.attr('id')
so in your code above:
changeRoute: function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var href = $(e.currentTarget).attr("href");
router.navigate(href, true);
}
