Find an Anchor tag inside a Paragraph tag.

I have the following markup which I need to bind a click event to the <a> tag below.

How can i achieve this?

         <p class="people_rt_link2" id="test">
        <a href="#" title="2011">2011</a>
        <p style="padding-left: 3px; margin: 3px 0px;">
        a href="http://192.168.20.24/mclarengroup/archives/928">McLaren to build £10m Big Yellow in Chiswick, West London</a>
            </p>
            <br>
           <a href="#" title="2010">2010</a>
          <br>
    </p>

This is my current javascript function:

                  <script type="text/javascript">
                      $(document).ready(function() {

                          $('.people_rt_link2 a').click(function() {
                                alert('aa');
                          });

                          var data = { cat_id:<?php echo $cat_id?>,posted_year:<?php echo $posted_year?>};
                          jQuery.p开发者_JS百科ost("<?php echo $ajax_page_details->guid?>", data, function(response) {
                            $('#test').html(response);
                          });
                      });
                    </script>

you could possible do it by setting an id for the link.

HTML:

 <a href="" id="link123">123</a>

Javascript:

 $("#link123").click(...);

Have a look at the jquery documantation specially for selectors:

You HTML is poorly formed. If you want those styles, apply them directly to the element itself (as shown) or wrap it in a span rather than another paragraph tag.

I also opened an <a> tag for you and self closed your </br>
