jQuery AJAX callback issues

I want to make links disappear when the ajax call underneath them returns successful.
I can’t figure out how to access the $(this) … or whatever it needs to be … to get back to the $(“a”) jquery object.

I have put alerts in the callback and it IS running.

What do I do?


$("a").click(function(){
    var content = $(this).html();

    $.post("process.php", { filename: content},
      function(data){
        $(this).hide();         //<<<<THIS IS WHERE I NEED HELP
      });

});

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide :slight_smile:
