在PHP中单击时获取ONE元素的名称

Question

I'm wondering how I can get the name of an element when it is clicked in PHP, but all elements have the same name for this instance...

PHP:

<?php
    $playlist_names = array("Chill", "Groovy", "Pastasauce", "Dank Songs", "Katy Perry");

    for ($i = 0; $i < count($playlist_names); $i++) {
        echo "<a href=\"\" class=\"playlist-name\" name=\"$x\">$playlist_names[$i]<img src=\"http://i.imgur.com/pLLny9D.png\" class=\"gear-icon\" /></a>";
    }
?>

What I'm trying to do is when "playlist-name" is clicked - It will return the playlist name in a different div with the text "Editing [Name of the playlist here]"

This does seem like a simple problem, but as always thanks for helping out!

Use $(this).text(); to get the text inside an html element

for your case to retrive only the first element text you can use this selector :

$("div p:nth-child(1)").text();

and so one for the other ones .
