在jQuery中匹配标签和字符串

Question

Is it possible to match a string and it's enclosing tags in jQuery?

I need to match the following…

<p>Oops! We could not locate your form.</p>

and replace it or add a class to it - I'm not sure yet. I know how to match the content or the tags but I need to target the whole thing specifically to replace it.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

James

Answer 1

Use :contains :

$('p:contains("Oops! We could not locate your form.")')

Or filter :

$('p').filter(function() {
    return $(this).text() == 'Oops! We could not locate your form.';
});

The latter will be quicker, although neither are really ideal. If you need to find a common element in your HTML quite often, add a class or id to it.

Answer 2

Yeah! you can do, first you need to assign any class or id to that p tag.
