React - Get text of div on click without refs

Question

Is there an example where we can retrieve the value of a React element without the usage of refs? Is that possible?

var Test = React.createClass({

  handle         


        

Answer 1

If you want to retrieve text, use innerText property, if html – innerHTML.

Example:

handleClick: function(e) {
  alert(e.currentTarget.innerHTML);
}
