根据meta标签的内容将类添加到正文

Question

Sorry for my English but I think its pretty easy to understand.

I use different languages on a website. I want to add a class to the body when the German language is selected.

<meta http-equiv="language" content="DE">

Tried this, but seems like its making no effect:

   $(function() {
            if  ($("meta[http-equiv='language']").attr("content") === "DE")) {
                $("body").addClass("german");
            }
    });

Answer 1

if(jQuery('meta[http-equiv="language"]').attr('content') === 'DE'){
    jQuery('body').addClass(yourclass);
}
