Structure:
1 2 3 4 | <div id="thisismydiv1"></div> <div id="thisismydiv2"></div> <div id="thisismydiv3"></div> <div id="thisismydiv4"></div> |
To return an array of all divs that start with ‘thisismydiv’, you would use the following:
1 | var divList = $("div[id^='thisismydiv']"); |
The above translates to, find me all divs whose id starts with ‘thisismydiv’. You could now do something cool like add a class to all those divs:
1 | $("div[id^='thisismydiv']").addClass('myClass'); |
