Jquery Get longdesc Prop

Question

I need to get the longdesc from an image.

I have tried:

$(this).prop('longdesc');

but it returns undefined.

you could try `.attr()` instead of `.prop()` – Jake Zeitz Mar 26 '13 at 19:15 — Jake Zeitz, Mar 26 '13 at 19:15

You can use data-* attributes, and get the data using .data()

An interesting idea. I will think about this for the future, but I'll stick with attr('longdesc') for now. – User970008 Mar 26 '13 at 19:21

just for the sake of an answer:

Use attr() instead of prop()
