Is there an easy way to select all elements within a div (or any other element) with jQuery
?
I have been searching for hours this week and I will continue to bang my head against my keyboard.
<div class="Someclass">
<img src="" title="" />
<ul>
<li></li>
<li><a href="" alt="" /></li>
</ul>
</div>
I want an easy way to select all elements within .Someclass
without having to call out each element.
The * selector selects all elements. The * selector can also select all elements inside another element (See "More Examples").
The jQuery syntax is a little simpler, but not much more: $("div") is the jQuery equivalent to document. getElementsByTagName("div") . Here is the API documentation on jQuery's element selector: “Description: Selects all elements with the given tag name.
Projects In JavaScript & JQueryjQuery uses CSS selector to select elements using CSS. Let us see an example to return a style property on the first matched element. The css( name ) method returns a style property on the first matched element. name − The name of the property to access.
The easier jQuery only selection would be $("#divID *")
. As you know in CSS a b
means all b
which is descendant of a
and a > b
means all b
which is direct child of a
so #myDiv *
means everything that is a descendant of a <div>
with id="myDiv"
.
