Simple jQuery selector

I am trying to select the surround element when a开发者_开发技巧 image within the span is clicked 'remove()', but I am a little new to jQuery and can't figure out how to do it. I can't use a unique id as the element are generated dynamically.

For example:

<span class='type_link'> <img src='/images/deleteCross.gif' onclick='remove()' />Example</span>

I want to select the span when the image is clicked.

Here is an example to hide the parent element of the image:

<span class='type_link'> <img src='/images/deleteCross.gif' onclick='$(this).parent().hide();' />Example</span>

The trick is to use "this" and the parent()-function.

Cheers, Chris

Look at this (for selector) and this (for event)!

Also W3schools provide Good example for first step in Jquery.

How about .parent() http://api.jquery.com/parent/
