How do I get the xaxisLabels value when clicking on it?

Hi

I am using RGraph in my angular 7 application. all working as expected. But i need a feature as below.

I want to get the value of xaxislabel on clicking on it. Please let me know if anyone has answer.

Thanks in advance

I have tried below but not working:

document.getElementsByClassName('rgraph_accessible_text_xaxis_labels')[0].addEventListener('click', function()
{
alert('text'+ document.getElementsByClassName('rgraph_accessible_text_xaxis_labels')[0].nodeValue);
});

You were close - I've made a demo with a few alterations:

            xaxisLabels: ['Mon','Tue','Wed','Thu','Fri','Sat','Sun'],
            textAccessiblePointerevents: true
         }
        }).draw();

        label = document.getElementsByClassName('rgraph_accessible_text_xaxis_labels')[0];

        // Add a mousemove listener that changes the mouse cursor to the hand
        label.addEventListener('mousemove', function(e)
        {
            e.target.style.cursor = 'pointer';
        }, false);

        // Add a click listener that shows an alert
        label.addEventListener('click', function(e)
        {
            alert('Text: '+ label.innerHTML);
        }, false);
    </script>

There's a codepen here that demonstrates it (only the first label is clickable - but it's easy to change that to all of the labels):
