jQuery Selector: Id Ends With?

Question

Is there a selector that I can query for elements with an ID that ends with a given string?

Say I have a element with an id of "ctl00$ContentBody$txtTitle". How can I get this by passing just "txtTitle"?

Answer 1

$("element[id$='txtTitle']")

Answer 2

Try

$("element[id$='txtTitle']");

Answer 3

$('element[id$=txtTitle]')

It's not strictly necessary to quote the text fragment you are matching against

Answer 4

It's safer to add the underscore or $ to the term you're searching for so it's less likely to match other elements which end in the same ID:

$("element[id$=_txtTitle]")

(Note, you're suggesting your IDs tend to have $ signs in them, but I think .NET 2 now tends to use underscores in the ID instead, so my example uses an underscore).

Answer 5

An example: to select all <a>s with ID ending in _edit:

jQuery("a[id$=_edit]")

or

jQuery("a[id$='_edit']")
