从.attr（'href'）存储数字时，jQuery变量未定义

Question

I'm trying to get the number from this link

   <div id="section-tabs-header">
   <a id="section-tabs-header-subtitle" class="ellipsis" href="/courses/123456">Math 101</a>

and store it in a variable

var courseID = $("div#section-tabs-header a#section-tabs-header-subtitle").attr("href").match(/\d+/);
console.log(courseID);

but the variable is "undefined."

Is it because what jQuery is finding is html rather than the plain text of the number? How do I get just the number?

Answer 1

I didn't see anything about the variable being undefined. I got that $ was undefined so I included jQuery. Then I got that href wasn't a function so I modified some code that was after the code you mentioned to this: $("#main a").attr("href","/courses/" + courseID);

I think this is working how you expect? http://jsbin.com/egevok/1/edit

Answer 2

I modified it, have a look http://jsbin.com/iculoq/2/edit .

var courseID = $("#section-tabs-header-subtitle").attr("href").split('/')[2];

$("#main a").attr('href', "/courses/" + courseID);

Answer 3

var href = $("#section-tabs-header-subtitle")
  .attr("href");
console.log(href);
var courseID =  href.match(/\d+/);
console.log(courseID);

$("#main a").attr("href","/courses/" + courseID);
