如何将变量从javascript传递到jquery？

Question

I have the following code,

<a href="#" onclick="popup('<?php echo $temp_class['class']; ?>')">

I pass a class generated from php function to javascript function popup().

I have another code

  function popup (myclass) {
    $(myclass).hide();
  }

The variable myclass accept value passed to the function. How to use myclass value to jquery so that I can hide an html element associated with the given class like example above?

Answer 1

The dot is used for classes so I think this will work:

$('.' + myclass).hide();
