Question

<div class="first">
 <div class="second">

   etc
 </dv>
</div>

How can I get the class of the first div ? (“first”) using jQuery ?

I have this html inside a variable “$body_html”

Leah. Unfortunately, I don’t know in what way exactly you are going to get this class. But I suppose, that the next ideas can help you. If you know the second class you may use the next code

    $('.second').closest('div').attr('class');

If you don’t, you may add the id to the first div tag and then use

    $('#divid').attr('class')
