Jquery Selector for Id Starts with Specific Text

jQuery selector for id starts with specific text

Use jquery starts with attribute selector

$('[id^=editDialog]')

Alternative solution - 1 (highly recommended)

A cleaner solution is to add a common class to each of the divs & use

$('.commonClass').

But you can use the first one if html markup is not in your hands & cannot change it for some reason.

Alternative solution - 2 (not recommended if n is a large number)
(as per @Mihai Stancu's suggestion)

$('#editDialog-0, #editDialog-1, #editDialog-2,...,#editDialog-n')

Note: If there are 2 or 3 selectors and if the list doesn't change, this is probably a viable solution but it is not extensible because we have to update the selectors when there is a new ID in town.

Jquery / javascript selector for id starts with specific text and get highest value it ends in

<div id="doc1">some elements inside</div><div id="doc2">some elements inside</div><div id="doc3">some elements inside</div><div id="doc4">some elements inside</div>

Find all select boxes with id or name starting with a specific string

You are trying to get select tag within select tag, remove the find part since its already contains collection of select tags(assuming elements with id prefix product_id are select tags). If there are other elements with id prefix product_id then combine select with the attribute starts with selector.

var IDs = [];
$("#dynamic_field select[id^='product_id']").each(function(){ IDs.push(this.id); });
alert(IDs.length);

---

You can use jQuery map() method to generate the array where use get() method to convert jQuery collection to array.

var IDs = $("#dynamic_field select[id^='product_id']").map(function(){ return this.id; }).get();

or using jQuery.map method.

var IDs = $.map($("#dynamic_field select[id^='product_id']"), ele => ele.id);

jQuery or CSS selector to select all IDs that start with some string

Normally you would select IDs using the ID selector #, but for more complex matches you can use the attribute-starts-with selector (as a jQuery selector, or as a CSS3 selector):

div[id^="player_"]

If you are able to modify that HTML, however, you should add a class to your player divs then target that class. You'll lose the additional specificity offered by ID selectors anyway, as attribute selectors share the same specificity as class selectors. Plus, just using a class makes things much simpler.

Find all elements on a page whose element ID contains a certain text using jQuery

$('*[id*=mytext]:visible').each(function() {
    $(this).doStuff();
});

Note the asterisk '*' at the beginning of the selector matches all elements.

See the Attribute Contains Selectors, as well as the :visible and :hidden selectors.

How to select element has id start and end with specific text using jquery?

FYI : It would be much better to use a common class for the group of elements for such things.

Find html element which id starts with

Try

$('div[id^="list_"]')

It should work

Find all elements whose id begins with a common string

Using jQuery you can use the attr starts with selector:

var dates = $('[id^="createdOnid"]');

Using modern browsers, you can use the CSS3 attribute value begins with selector along with querySelectorAll:

var dates = document.querySelectorAll('*[id^="createdOnID"]');

But for a fallback for old browsers (and without jQuery) you'll need:

var dateRE = /^createdOnid/;
var dates=[],els=document.getElementsByTagName('*');
for (var i=els.length;i--;) if (dateRE.test(els[i].id)) dates.push(els[i]);
