    copied!<p>I have a loop that looks like this:</p> <pre><code> &lt;? $i=1; while ($u=mysql_fetch_array($result1)){ ?&gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Sport&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;?php echo $u['sport_id'];?&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;a id="modal_window" href="#" rel="open"&gt;Make Question&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;?php $i++; } ?&gt; &lt;/table&gt; </code></pre> <p>The following modal window is opened when someone clicks on "Make Question":</p> <pre><code> &lt;div id="mascara"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="ventana"&gt; &lt;a class="ventanatitulo" href="#" rel="close"&gt;Close Window&lt;/a&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Write your question:&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;form&gt; &lt;input type="text" id="question"/&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;a href="#" onClick="ajax_question();"/&gt;Send question&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>What I want to do, is that every time someone clicks on "Make Question", capture into a variable the question that was written on the modal window (no problem to do this), and the sport_id that was clicked (I DON´T KNOW HOW TO DO THIS!!)</p> <p>This is the code for the modal window:</p> <pre><code>$(document).ready(function(e) { $('a[rel="open"]').click(function(e) { e.preventDefault(); var ancho = $(window).width(); var alto = $(document).height(); var mascara = $("#mascara"); var ventana = $("#ventana"); mascara.css({ "width" : ancho, "height" : alto }); mascara.fadeIn("fast", function() { ventana.css({ "top" : (alto / 3) - (ventana.height() / 2), "left" : (ancho / 2) - (ventana.width() / 2) }); ventana.fadeIn("fast"); }); }); $("a[rel='close']").click(function(e) { e.preventDefault(); $("#ventana").fadeOut("fast", function() { $("#mascara").fadeOut("fast"); }); }); }); </code></pre> <p>And finally this is the code where I want to capture all the variables and send them to page1.php:</p> <pre><code>function ajax_question(){ var question=$('#question').val(); //WRITTED QUESTION IS CAPTURED WITHOUT PROBLEM! var sport_id= //HOW DO I CAPTURE THE SPORT_ID THAT WAS CLICKED? $.ajax({ url:'page1.php', type:'POST', dataType:'text/html', data:'question='+question + '&amp;sport_id='+sport_id, success: function(return){ some code... } }); } </code></pre> <p>I hope you understand what I'm trying to do. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me!</p>
