    <p>I am using the simple Google API to display search results. I would like to get the href value of a link on mouseover or click. It is really not important what flavor of javascript is used, I just need to get the user selected href value of the rendered search.</p> <p>(I need this as I have a webservice that allows users to save links they find of interest.)</p> <p>I am horrible at client side scripting so I could really use a hand. With the example here I using the default Google AJAX Search API Sample.</p> <p><a href="http://www.thesupermedia.com/test/googlesearch/jquerymouseover2.GIF" rel="nofollow noreferrer">To visually explain I have posted this image.</a> (cannot attach)</p> <p>I have used the link - <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2098408/how-to-get-href-value-using-jquery">How to get href value using jQuery?</a> - for simple reference to no avail. I believe it is due to the way/page render order that the google search results are displayed. </p> <p>The html source pre render is as follows:</p> <pre><code> &lt;!-- copyright (c) 2009 Google inc.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
