Getting the class of the element that fired an event using JQuery

Try:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("a").click(function(event) {
       alert(event.target.id+" and "+$(event.target).attr('class'));
    });
});

This will contain the full class (which may be multiple space separated classes, if the element has more than one class). In your code it will contain either "konbo" or "kinta":

event.target.className

You can use jQuery to check for classes by name:

$(event.target).hasClass('konbo');

and to add or remove them with addClass and removeClass.
