jquery for each all elements having similar id

Question

I have many elements accross page - ID1, ID2 ID3 ...

I want to manipulate all the elements. Is there any simpler way to do this.

$("#ID").each(function(){ ... });

Answer 1

You can use ^ selector.

Example

$('div[id^="ID"]')

^= select DOM whose ID attribute starts with ID (i.e ID1, IDID,IDS,ID2 etc)
