JQuery :: Select An Element By Exact Mach Of Containing Text?
Oct 4, 2009
Is there a way (selector) that would allow me to select an element by exact mach of containing text. example:
<div>
This is some text
</div>
<div>
This
</div>
Lets say i want to select only the second div
$("div:contains('This')")...
okay, it would select it, but...it would also select the first one. I could iterate through each div and check if the text is matching but that's kinda dirty way of doing this. Is there any selector which would allow me to do this without iteration?

i would like to know the absolute position of an element (e.g. <LI>) in the browser. i nned to know it in order to place juste beside another element (e.g. submenu).
for example: i have a <li> tag which is at 400px from my browser left border (because it is inside a div which is screen centered). this <li> has a width of 180 px so if i want to know the most left position for my submenu, i should get 400 + 180 = 580 px (from the browser left border).
i tried offset but without success. in fact it returns me 0.

I have the following code: $('select.interest').change(function(){
var value = $(this + 'option:selected').text();
console.log(value);
)};
I just want to get the text of the select element I just changed. However, this is returning the text of the selected value of ALL the select elements on my page.

I have developed my own tools for serializing form data for asynchronous calls to the server (AJAX). I have consider many times that it would be useful that when a select element has both text and option values to send both values to the server. I have thought about a couple of different ways of doing this. But first let me give an example so that there is less chance of misunderstanding.Suppose I have a drop-down list that is a select element with an option list wherein each member of the option list has both a value and a text string.
as in Code:
<select name="state"><option value="1">Alabama</option>...</select>
And suppose I composed my javascript code in such a way that the value and the code are both included with a separator. Example Code:
&state=1|Alabama&keyfoo=keybar....
and '|' is the separator.

I've seen a variety of implementations around that enable selecting all or no checkboxes by using a checkbox to toggle that choice. However, I'm trying to find a way like this: I have two text links on my page: Select All, and Select None. How can I get those links to call a jquery function to select all or select no checkboxes in my form? As a little food for thought:
<head>
$(function() {
//function for selecting all or none...is there a way to make a single function that passes in a parameter to differentiate between selecting all or selecting none, or do I need a separate function for both?[code]....

When the page loads there will already be a drop-down on the page, here's an example of the drop down.
<select id="dropdown">
<option value="2121S">Option text</option>
<option value="2122S">Option text</option>
<option value="2123S">Option text</option>
<option value="2121A">Option text</option>
<option value="2122A">Option text</option>
<option value="2121K">Option text</option>
</select>
On page load it will evaluate this drop-down and repopulate it determined on their values. If there is an S in any of the values the drop-down will generate an option for 'S' like so.. <option value="s">S Option Text</option> And for the first code example in this post - the Javascript would be able to repopulate the drop-down with the following:

Scenario: you enter "foo bar" into a text field... Is it possible
through javascript to select/highlight just "foo"?
formObject.select()
selects all. I need to select only part of the string.

I'm having some problems understanding the append() function. What I'd like to do is select an element using it's ID and add a row to the table with a HTML form element. The table is dynamically generated using a Django template ( form.as_table() ) so I'm not able to alter the original HTML markup too much.
If I had a table like this...

Is this possible with JQuery? I have the following code which I think Should do this, but it's not working :/These are two different functions which I've been testing, and the html element is supposed to create a dropdown list via some PHP which will have the option "Other" within it. Unfortunately, I have no idea exactly how to turn "Other" into a text box when the user clicks, and I've been spending a lot of time on this already.

Is there way to only match on strings starting with the first characters input?For instance, if I have a list as such:[ 'Tamara','Amy']when I start to type 'Am', I only want to see "Amy" in the drop down list, not "Tamara".I feel like this should be an easy configuration option or easy mod, but alas, I could not find it.

I have a javascript tool in which I can supply a listener function, which has the parameter 'div', which is a dom element. Now I would like to apply $('a.enlargement').fancyzoom({Speed:0,showoverlay:true}); to that div, but I only have the reference. I know about the 'find' function, but that can only be run on a selection object. So how can I do this?

I have a standard menu structured with an unordered list. Some of the items in the menu have sub items, but are not themselves links. Here's an example:
<ul id="mainMenu">
<li><a href="">home</a></li>
<li><a>services</a>
<ul>
[Code].....
How do I select a tag that does (or does not) have a particular attribute? In my case, I want to be able to select all <a> tags in #mainMenu that do not have the href attribute.

I know you can use :even or :odd to get the even or odd indexes from a set, or :lt/:gt to filter down the matched set before/beyond the specified index. But what if I want to select every 5th element? And I know it's not nth-child, because that selects everything that is the nth-child of it's parent and not if it is one of the nth elements in the matched set. Is the only way to use .each(function (index) {...}); and then check if the index makes that element one of the nth items?

I use one outer div and a div as a child element
<div id="parent"><div>lorem ipsum</div></div>
and I need to register a click on the parent div. If I use
$("#parent")click(function(){
// my code
});
the code starts also if I click on the child div. So how can I start my function only if there was a click on the parent div outsite the child div?

I'm trying to select an image inside $(this) but can't figure out how to do it!
I can select it directly by using: $('#nav a img').fadeIn(500);
but that targets every element that fits into that criteria, not just the one I want to select.
how I can select only the image inside the $(this) variable?
