Question

For example if I have html like this:

<div id="id">
  <div class="class1">
    <div class="class2" name="name1"></div>
    <div class="class2" name="name2"></div>
    <div class="class2" name="name3"></div>
  </div>
</div>

And I have many divs with diffrent id values. It is possible to find and choose element by name attribute’s value when having <div id="id"> as a start point?

Answer 1

Yes, of course, using the “attribute equals” selector, e.g.:

$('#id div[name="foo"]').

will find all divs with name="foo" that are descendents (direct or otherwise) of the div with ID id.
