This code isn't for anything in particular. I'm just trying to successfully get the tagName or nodeName of an element. However, when I run the following code, I always get an alert saying "undefined". I'm wondering if it's because this function executes when the document is ready? Is there a different place I should be doing this? Or is it probably my other javascript code conflicting somehow (I would doubt).
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#first').hover(function() {
alert($('#last').nodeName);
});
});
Use the prop()
of jQuery:
alert($('#last').prop("nodeName"));
