Question

How is it possible that, being ‘colonna’ a simple string:

$('td.' + colonna).css('background-color','#ffddaa');

works correctly highlighting the background of the interesting cells, and:

$('td.' + colonna).contains('Catia').css('background-color','#ffddaa');

produces the error: “$(‘td.’ + colonna).contains is not a function”?

Someone has an idea?

Thanks!

I believe it should be something like:

$('td.' + colonna + ":contains('Catia')").css('background-color','#ffddaa');
