jQuery Removing last two characters in a class

Question

This should be pretty simple. I'm trying to use the slice method to remove the last two characters in a dynamically created string in a shopping cart.

So instead of having a product show as $28.00, I want the product to show up as $28. Since these values are coming from a database, I can't simply define the string in a variable, like I've seen in a lot of tutorials.

I've created a JSFiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/EbckS/

The jQuery that's not working is below:

    $(".myclass").slice(0,-2);

Answer 1

You should use text.

$(".slice").text(function(i, text) {
    return text.slice(0, -2);
});

• i Reffers the index position of the element in the set
• text Reffers the old text value
