JQuery - url location and click event

Question

$('#head_menu a').click(function(){ currentPage = document.location.hash.split('#')[1]; });

<div id="head_menu">
    <a href="#order"><div>make order</div></a>
    <a href="#portfolio"><div>portfolie</div></a>
    <a href="#contacts"><div>contacts</div></a>
    <a href="#vacancies"><div>vacancies</div></a>
    <a href="#about"><div>about company</div></a>
</div>

So, when I'm clicking to the links in head_menu div I come into this handler. But one trouble: if url has, for example, #about hash, in handler I'll get 'about', not that, at what I've clicked. Could I get new url-hash in click-handler?

Answer 1

Don't understand question ;)

BTW:

Another person who insert div into a. "a" is inline element so it couldn't has Div (it is block elemennt)

Answer 2

Why not just look at the href attribute of the link that was clicked?

$('#head_menu a').click(function(){
   currentPage = this.href.split('#')[1];
});
