jQuery, find by tag name and class that starts with

Question

Is there a way to find elements using both tag-name and class that starts with. I'm aware that you can do something like:

$(this).find(tag-name.full-class-name)

But how to use the starts-with (^=) in such a way?

Answer 1

i think this is what you are looking for

$("div[class^='apple-'])

it will show classes which start with "apple-"
