在Javascript中使用变量保持选择器

Question

$(".focus-button").addClass('active');
$(".focus-button[data-expand='true']").addClass('active');

If I store the class selector in a variable like:

var btn = $(".focus-button");

The variable can be used in the code as

btn.addClass('active'); // This is correct
btn[data-expand='true'].addClass('active'); // This is wrong

May I know what is the right way to use variable with attributes.

Answer 1

You can use filter to add additional selectors in the way you want.

Reduce the set of matched elements to those that match the selector or pass the function's test.

Example:

var btn = $(".focus-button");
btn.addClass("active");
btn.filter("[data-expand='true']").removeClass("active")

Where

var btn = $(".focus-button");
btn.filter("[data-expand='true']")

is the same as

$(".focus-button[data-expand='true']")

Answer 2

Situation:

In your actual code, if you write:

var btn = $(".focus-button");

You will get a collection of all elements with class focus-button , so when you write, btn.addClass('active'); it's correct and it will add the class active to all the elements in this collection.

Problem:

While when you write:

btn[data-expand='true'].addClass('active');

It's wrong because JavaScript will interpret it as you are accessing a property in your btn object, because [] are only used to access a specific property in an object or a specific element by index in an array .

And btn[data-expand='true'] is only a CSS selector.

Solution:

You can use jQuery .filter() as suggested in comments, like this:

btn.filter("[data-expand='true']").addClass('active');

Answer 3

try this snippet:

 //$(".focus-button").addClass('active'); //$(".focus-button[data-expand='true']").addClass('active'); var btn = $(".focus-button"); //btn.addClass('active'); btn.filter("[data-expand='true']").addClass('active'); 

 .active{ background: #000; color: #fff; } 

 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <div class="focus-button">F</div> <div class="focus-button" data-expand="true">E</div> 

Answer 4

试试这个代码

btn.filter("data-expand='true'").addClass('active');
