jquery click & get value of attributes of a href

Have you tried: $(this).attr()? http://api.jquery.com/attr/


try the following

$('a.preActNav').click(function() {
   alert($(this).attr('seq'));
});

you need to use $(this) jquery selector instead


Try this

$('a.preActNav').click(function() { 
        alert($(this).attr('seq'));
        //To get href
        alert(this.href);
    });   

Like this:

alert($(this).attr('seq'));

Although it may be better to put seq as another data element:

<li><a href="#preclose4" data-theme="a" data-icon="arrow-d" data-transition="none" data-seq='1' class="preActNav"  ID="preActNavA">A</a></li>

So then you can do:

alert($(this).data('seq'));
