The same with jQuery looks like this:
<input type="text" id="myid" value="World" />
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() { //document.ready
$("#myid").click(function() {
alert( "Hello " + $(this).val() );
}
});
</script>
You don't have to pass anything to the function since the 'this' context
variable is equal to the element to which the event was bound. If you want
to pass some other value to the function, there are a couple of ways to do
that, but which one to pick would really depend on the what/why. In other
words, it's hard to say without a more real scenario.
