You may simplify your selector and remove the a
and use the following code where rowId
holds the id of the row you wish to retrieve:
var linkText = $('#'+ idVal +'[rowid=\"'+ rowId +'\"]').text();
or just hardcode the row id like that:
var link1Text = $('#'+ idVal +'[rowid="1"]').text();
var link1Text = $('#'+ idVal +'[rowid="2"]').text();
Cheers,
solved Get text value of html elements with same #Id
