jQuery: Get content of clicked span by class

Question

I've got several `span` tags, with the same class. Every `span` has it's unique id. Now I'd like to get the content and the id of the clicked `span` class. I found out how I go about the id of the class, but I can't seem to get the content between the `` tags. I tried `this.html()`, `this.html`, `this.text` and `this.tex()` but I can't get the text. ``` $(".row").click(function() { alert(this.id); alert(this.html); } ``` HTML : ```

Username of user 1 Username of user 2

```

Accepted Answer

You could use `innnerHTML`, and you missed `);` at last.

```
$(".row").click(function() {
    alert(this.id);
    alert(this.innerHTML);
});
```
