jQuery: $(document).on(event, name as selector, function [duplicate]

Question

Sorry if this is too simple, I am new to programming and I stumbled upon this problem. How can I use the name attribute as the selector inside a
$(document).on('click', '#thisisforid', function().. ?

It is well documented that I can use the id and class name by using #idname and .classname but it is nowhere to be found (I tried so hard to search) how to or if I could use the name attribute instead.

Answer 1

Use an Atrribute Selector like this:

$("[name = 'theNameYouWant']");

More CSS Selectors here.

Note: The CSS Selectors are not exclusive features of jQuery. They work everywhere (in CSS files, using document.querySelector ...)
