How do I add a Class on a page targeting a specific URL via jQuery?

Answer 1

I'm assuming you want to add a link to all anchor tags that have a specific href value?

You can filter your a tag matches by the href attribute using the following:

$('a[href="http://www.google.com"]').addClass("className");

or

$('a').each(function() {
    if($(this).attr('href') == 'http://www.google.com') {
        $(this).addClass('className');
    }
});
