get original element from ng-click

Question

I have a list of items in my view with ng-click attached to them    lt ul id  team-filters  gt       lt li ng-click  foo  event  team   ng-repeat  team in teams  gt            lt img src    team logoSmall    alt    team name    title    team name    gt       lt  li gt   lt  ul gt    I m handling the click events in the foo function in my directive  passing  event as a reference to the object that s been clicked  but I m getting a reference to the img tag  rather than the li tag  I then have to do stuff like this to get the li    scope foo   function  event  team       var el    function           if   event target nodeName      IMG               return angular element  event target  parent       get li          else             return angular element  event target               is li                     Is there a simple way to get the reference to the element that ng-click is bound to  without doing DOM operations in my directive

You need  event currentTarget instead of  event target

User · Answer

Not a direct answer to this question but rather to the  issue  of  event currentTarget apparently be set to null   This is due to the fact that console log shows deep mutable objects at the last state of execution  not at the state when console log was called   You can check this for more information  Consecutive calls to console log produce inconsistent results
