TreeView value - jquery help

[Gregor]

I have my treeview output as below:-

<div class=​"k-mid">​
<span class=​"k-icon k-plus">​</span>​
<span class=​"k-in k-state-hover">​
<span categoryId="11">​TestNameHere</span>​
</span>​
</div>​

When I select a node from the treeview I can alert(treeview.text(e.node)) to get the text - but I need access to the categoryId value, anyone know how I can get this?

Thanks

[Chris]

Have you tried $(e.node).attr('categoryId')?

Managed to get it working by doing this:- var selectedCatId = $(e.node.children[0]).find("input").val();
