Question

Currently the following allows me to attach a handler for all id’s under the #container div that have “test” in it:

$('#container').delegate("input[id*='test']", 'click', function(event) {
    // code
}

Is there a way to do the same but to look for all id’s that do NOT have test in them?

Thanks!

Use :not to negate your id*='test' selector:

$('#container').delegate("input:not([id*='test'])", 'click', function(event) {
    //code
}
