title: jQuery how to get the class or id of last clicked element?
body: <p>I am trying to get the class or an id of the last clicked element. This is what I have based off of what I found <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5905014/determine-last-item-clicked">here</a>...</p>
  
  <p><strong>HTML</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="" class="button"&gt;Button&lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>JQUERY</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>$('.button').click(function () {
            myFuntion();
  });
  
  function myFunction (e) {
   e = e || event;
   $.lastClicked = e.target || e.srcElement;
  
   var lastClickedElement = $.lastClicked;
   console.log(lastClickedElement);
  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This sort of does what I want, but I am not sure how to go about modifying it so I can get just the class.</p>
  
  <p>I have also tried using <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9486936/get-the-id-of-the-last-clicked-jquery">this</a> solution but couldn't get it to work with my code.</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('.button').click(function () {
    myFuntion();
  });
  
  
  function myFunction(){
      var lastID;
      lastID = $(this).attr("id");
  
      console.log(lastID);
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I do this my console log comes back as undefined. I am probably missing something obvious. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.</p>
