jquery - get the text inside an anchor after clicking on the image -

i have several links similar following html, different text :-

<a class="rplink " href="#">    <span class="rpout">    <span class="rpexpandhandle"></span>    <img class="rpimage" src="images/favourite.png">     <span class="rptext">baskets product </span>    </span> </a> 

i trying text (inside rptext) when user clicks on favourite image.

i have following jquery until :-

        $('.rpitem').on("click", "img", function (e) {         var text = $(this).find(".rplink").text();         e.preventdefault();         var args = {             reportname: e         };         alert($(this).attr('href'));         $.ajax({             type: "post",             url: "default.aspx/addtofavourites",             data: json.stringify(args),             contenttype: "application/json;charset=utf-8;",             success: function () {             },             error: function () {                 alert("fail");             }         });     }); 

however cannot manage text.

if click event favourite img u can use siblings()

try this

 $('.rpitem').on("click", "img", function (e) {     $(this).siblings('span.rptext').text();     ....
