Can you refer to the element on which a handler called a function?
<p>I usually never use this programming style, but thought I would give it a try just so I know whats up with it.</p>

<p>Here is my input tag HTML:
<code>&lt;input id="Read" type="checkbox" onclick="readClicked()" checked&gt;</code></p>

<p>And my associated function:</p>

<pre><code>function readClicked() {
    console.log(this);
    console.log($(this));
    alert('Read Clicked!');
}
</code></pre>

<p>Is there anyway to refer to the element in which the handler that called readClicked() was called from inside the function?
Something like:</p>

<pre><code>function readClicked() {
    var caller = function.caller;
    var type = $(caller).attr('type');
}
</code></pre>
