Question

i am trying to check an auto generated span class="" content , which i will use it as a condition to determine whether i will show a message to the user or not

here is the span

<span id="sprytextfield1" class="textfieldInvalidFormatState">

what i tried here is to put a Div called email with an id so i can use the following

if ($('email').html('<span id="sprytextfield1" class="textfieldInvalidFormatState">'))
{

alert ("error");
}

but this did not work because if put the span inside my div email this will stop the JavaScript and result in error, because for some data condition i can not close the div at the end of the span.

is there any way to get the span class without putting all the span inside a div ?
