jQuery Passing $(this) to a Function

Question

I have lines of code like this:

$(this).parent().parent().children().each(function(){
    // do something
});

It works well. But I need to run

Answer 1

jQuery will automatically invoke your function with the proper context set.

$('#button').on('click', myFunction);

function myFunction() {
    var that = $(this);
    console.log(that);
}
