You need to send the ID as the function parameters. Do it like this:

<button id="1" onClick="reply_click(this.id)">B1</button>
<button id="2" onClick="reply_click(this.id)">B2</button>
<button id="3" onClick="reply_click(this.id)">B3</button>
    
<script type="text/javascript">
  function reply_click(clicked_id)
  {
      alert(clicked_id);
  }
</script>

This will send the ID this.id as clicked_id which you can use in your function. See it in action here.

USING PURE JAVASCRIPT: I know it's late but may be for the future people it can help:

In the HTML part:

<button id="1" onClick="reply_click()"></button>
<button id="2" onClick="reply_click()"></button>
<button id="3" onClick="reply_click()"></button>

In the Javascipt Controller:

function reply_click()
{
    alert(event.srcElement.id);
}

This way we don't have to bind the 'id' of the Element at the time of calling the javascript function.

In general, things are easier to keep organized if you separate your code and your markup. Define all of your elements, and then in your JavaScript section, define the various actions that should be performed on those elements.

When an event handler is called, it's called within the context of the element that was clicked on. So, the identifier this will refer to the DOM element that you clicked on. You can then access attributes of the element through that identifier.

For example:

<button id="1">Button 1</button>
<button id="2">Button 2</button>
<button id="3">Button 3</button>

<script type="text/javascript">
var reply_click = function()
{
    alert("Button clicked, id "+this.id+", text"+this.innerHTML);
}
document.getElementById('1').onclick = reply_click;
document.getElementById('2').onclick = reply_click;
document.getElementById('3').onclick = reply_click;
</script>

(I think the id attribute needs to start with a letter. Could be wrong.)

You could go for event delegation...

<div onClick="reply_click()">
    <button id="1"></button>
    <button id="2"></button>
    <button id="3"></button>
</div>

function reply_click(e) {
    e = e || window.event;
    e = e.target || e.srcElement;
    if (e.nodeName === 'BUTTON') {
        alert(e.id);
    }
}

...but that requires you to be relatively comfortable with the wacky event model.

<button id="1" onClick="reply_click(this)"></button>
<button id="2" onClick="reply_click(this)"></button>
<button id="3" onClick="reply_click(this)"></button>

function reply_click(obj)
{
var id = obj.id;
}

How to do it without inline JavaScript or external libraries

it is generally recommended to avoid inline JavaScript, but rarely is there an example of how to do it.
Here is my way of attaching events to buttons.
I'm not entirely happy with how much longer the recommended method is compared to a simple onClick attribute.

Modern browsers (2015+)

  • Works before the document has finished loading.
  • Very efficient.
  • Separates JS from HTML.
  • JS is in the <head>

const Listen = (doc) => {
    return {
        on: (type, selector, callback) => {
            doc.addEventListener(type, (event)=>{
                if(!event.target.matches(selector)) return;
                callback.call(event.target, event);
            }, false);
        }
    }
};


Listen(document).on('click', '.btn', function (e) {
    let div = document.createElement("div");
    div.innerHTML = "click " + e.target.id + "!";
    document.body.appendChild(div);
});
<button id="b1" class="btn">Button 1</button>
<button id="b2" class="btn">Button 2</button>
<button id="b3">Do nothing</button>

                if(!event.target.classList.contains(className)) return;
                callback.call(event.target, event);
            }, false);
        }

You can run this before the document is ready, clicking the buttons will work because we attach the event to the document.

Here is a jsfiddle
For some strange reason the insertHTML function does not work in it even though it works in all my browsers.

You can always replace insertHTML with document.write if you don't mind it's drawbacks

<script>
document.write('<button class="click-me" id="btn1">Button 1</button>');
</script>

Sources:

  • What are alternatives to document.write?
  • Check if an element contains a class in JavaScript?
  • event.preventDefault() function not working in IE
  • https://gist.github.com/eduardocereto/955642
<button id="1" class="clickMe"></button>
<button id="2" class="clickMe"></button>
<button id="3" class="clickMe"></button>

<script>
$('.clickMe').click(function(){
    alert(this.id);
});
</script>

If you don't want to pass any arguments to the onclick function, just use event.target to get the clicked element:

<button id="1" onClick="reply_click()"></button>
<button id="2" onClick="reply_click()"></button>
<button id="3" onClick="reply_click()"></button>

function reply_click()
{
    // event.target is the element that is clicked (button in this case).
    console.log(event.target.id);
}

With pure javascript you can do the following:

var buttons = document.getElementsByTagName("button");
var buttonsCount = buttons.length;
for (var i = 0; i < buttonsCount; i += 1) {
    buttons[i].onclick = function(e) {
        alert(this.id);
    };
}​

check it On JsFiddle

You can simply do it this way:

<input type="button" id="1234" onclick="showId(this.id)" value="click me to show my id"/>
<script type="text/javascript">
   function showId(obj) {
        var id=obj;
        alert(id);
   }

<button id="1" onClick="reply_click()"></button>
<button id="2" onClick="reply_click()"></button>
<button id="3" onClick="reply_click()"></button>

function reply_click()
{
   console.log(window.event.target.id)
}

This is improvement of Prateek answer - event is pass by parameter so reply_click not need to use global variable (and as far no body presents this variant)

function reply_click(e) {
  console.log(e.target.id);
}
<button id="1" onClick="reply_click(event)">B1</button>
<button id="2" onClick="reply_click(event)">B2</button>
<button id="3" onClick="reply_click(event)">B3</button>

First Way: Send trigger element using this

<button id="btn01" onClick="myFun(this)">B1</button>
<button id="btn02" onClick="myFun(this)">B2</button>
<button id="btn03" onClick="myFun(this)">B3</button>

<script>
  function myFun(trigger_element)
  {
      // Get your element:
      var clicked_element = trigger_element

      alert(clicked_element.id + "Was clicked!!!");
  }
</script>

This way send an object of type: HTMLElement and you get the element itself. you don't need to care if the element has an id or any other property. And it works by itself just fine.


Second Way: Send trigger element id using this.id

<button id="btn01" onClick="myFun(this.id)">B1</button>
<button id="btn02" onClick="myFun(this.id)">B2</button>
<button id="btn03" onClick="myFun(this.id)">B3</button>

<script>
  function myFun(clicked_id)
  {
      // Get your element:
      var clicked_element = document.getElementById(clicked_id)

      alert(clicked_id + "Was clicked!!!");
  }
</script>

This way send an object of type: String and you DO NOT get the element itself. So before use, you need to make sure that your element already has an id.

You mustn't send the element id by yourself such as onClick="myFun(btn02)". it's not CLEAN CODE and it makes your code lose functionality.


in your case:

<button id="1" onClick="reply_click(this.id)">B1</button>
<button id="2" onClick="reply_click(this.id)">B2</button>
<button id="3" onClick="reply_click(this.id)">B3</button>
    
<script type="text/javascript">
  function reply_click(clicked_id)
  {
      alert(clicked_id);
  }
</script>

Button 1 Button 2 Button 3

var reply_click = function() { 
     alert("Button clicked, id "+this.id+", text"+this.innerHTML); 
} 
document.getElementById('1').onclick = reply_click; 
document.getElementById('2').onclick = reply_click; 
document.getElementById('3').onclick = reply_click;
 <button id="1"class="clickMe"></button>

<button id="2" class="clickMe"></button>

<button id="3" class="clickMe"></button>



$('.clickMe').live('click',function(){

var clickedID = this.id;

});

This will log the id of the element that's been clicked: addFields.

<button id="addFields" onclick="addFields()">+</button>

<script>

function addFields(){ 
    console.log(event.toElement.id)
}

</script>

Although it's 8+ years late, in reply to @Amc_rtty, to get dynamically generated IDs from (my) HTML, I used the index of the php loop to increment the button IDs. I concatenated the same indices to the ID of the input element, hence I ended up with id="tableview1" and button id="1" and so on.

$tableView .= "<td><input type='hidden' value='http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."/sql/update.php?id=".$mysql_rows[0]."&table=".$theTable."'id='tableview".$mysql_rows[0]."'><button type='button' onclick='loadDoc(event)' id='".$mysql_rows[0]."'>Edit</button></td>";

In the javascript, I stored the button click in a variable and added it to the element.

function loadDoc(e) {
  var btn = e.target.id;
  var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
  var page = document.getElementById("tableview"+btn).value;
  
  //other Ajax stuff
  }

Sorry its a late answer but its really quick if you do this :-

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('button').on('click', function() {
     alert (this.id);
  });
});

This gets the ID of any button clicked.

If you want to just get value of button clicked in a certain place, just put them in container like

<div id = "myButtons"> buttons here </div>

and change the code to :-

 $(document).ready(function() {
      $('.myButtons button').on('click', function() {
         alert (this.id);
      });
    });

I hope this helps
