Question

Apologies for asking more or less the same question again. I just noticed that i am using another name instead of ‘id’.

<li emage="toto" class="jstree-leaf">
    <ins class="jstree-icon2">&nbsp;</ins>
    <a class=""><ins class="jstree-icon2">&nbsp;</ins>Story B</a>
</li>

I need to change the class of the <ins> tags for a specific <li> where emage value is ‘toto’.

If i was using ‘id’ instead of ’emage’, i would have used the following:

$("#toto ins").attr("class","className");

But since am not using id, how can i change the class of the inner <ins> tags.

Your suggestions are much appreciated

Answer 1

Try the following

$('li[emage="toto"] ins').attr('class', 'className');

This will update the class of all ins tags inside the li with the attribute emage that has the value “toto”
