I would like to refer VisualForce Ids in jQuery using partial ID selector. Below is the code -
<apex:page id="page"> <apex:form id="form"> What is your name? <br/> <apex:inputText id="name" onfocus="myFunc()"/> <br/> What is your age? <br/> <apex:inputText id="ageText" onfocus="myFunc()"/> </apex:form> <apex:includeScript value="{!URLFOR($Resource.jQuery1_11, '/js/jquery-1.11.2.min.js')}"/> <script> function myFunc() { var j$ = jQuery.noConflict(); var inputTextNameCatched = j$( 'input[id$=name]' ); //Find element with ID ending with name inputTextNameCatched.val('Sudipta Deb'); var inputTextAgeCatched = j$('input[id$=Text]'); inputTextAgeCatched.val('30'); } </script> </apex:page>The above code is working perfectly fine. But when I am trying to get IDs starts with "age" with the below code -
var inputTextAgeCatched = j$('input[id^=age]');it is not working. Can anyone please help me to understand what is the problem? Thanks in advance.
Hi Sudipta ,
You can try this:
var inputTextAgeCatched = j$('input[id*=age]');

You can try this:
var inputTextAgeCatched = j$('input[id$=ageText]');
or
var inputTextAgeCatched = j$('input[id*=ageText]');
Thanks for your answer. id$ will work for sure. But what about if I want to refer VisualForce IDs starting with "age" (Say for example - I only know that ID will start with "age", nothing else). I was trying to use id^, but it was not working. Any idea why it was not working?
Hi Sudipta,
Try the following syntax, it works for me.
var inputTextAgeCatched = j$('[id^="age"]');
