How do I find the JavaScript that is invoked when I click on a button or a link in a web-page (part of a data mining project)?

I tried to use the 'inspect element' of the firebug addon for Firefox but it doesn't give me any link to the javascript.

For example I got this from the firebug addon: < a href="javascript:"> text of the link < /a>

But there is no link to the actual javascript or anything that I can use to directly go to the said link.

How do I accomplish this? I need this as part of a personal data mining project that I am doing.
