selector in Javascript

Question

I'm beginner in Javascript. I have a list of links and I want to select links end with .zip and add class zip from css;

add select links end with not .zip and add class notzip from css.

I use $("a[href $='.zip']").addClass("zip") to do the first task but cannot do the task 2 by add ! or not(). It is recommended by $this and location, filter function. How can I do that?

      <ul>
    <li><a href="a.html">a</a></li>
    <li><a href="b.pdf">b</a></li>
    <li><a href="c.zip">c</a></li>
  </ul>

Answer 1

You can make use of :not :

 $(function() { $("a[href$='.zip']").addClass('zip'); $("a:not([href$='.zip'])").addClass('notzip'); $("a:not([href$='.zip']):not([href$='.html'])").addClass('notzipnorhtml'); var exts = ['html', 'pdf', 'zip']; $('a' + exts.map(ext => ':not([href$=".' + ext + '"])').join('')) .addClass('notanyofthose'); }); 

 .zip { color: green; } .notzip { color: red; } .notzipnorhtml { color: purple; } .notanyofthose { color: blue; } 

 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <ul> <li><a href="a.html">a</a></li> <li><a href="b.pdf">b</a></li> <li><a href="c.zip">c</a></li> <li><a href="d.exe">d</a></li> </ul> 

Answer 2

If I understood correctly, this should work!

$("a[href='.zip']").addClass("zip");
$("a[href!='.zip']").addClass("notzip");
