joshclarkson.net Blog Archive jQuery, Selecting the Previous Element With Filtering
Recently I was looking for a solution to this problem.The idea being that you would click the image with the “delete” class and submit an ajax call to delete the tag for that file in a Folksonomy system. I had the hardest time trying to figure out how to select the tagcontrol link, I needed to acquire it’s ID for one of the data variables in the ajax call. The answer came from prevAll(). With only the “this” reference from the clicked image, you can find and select the most previous “a” element that has the “.tagcontrol” class.
