Question

I can succesfully hide the divs that contains a string in the id with this code:

The button:

<input type="button" id="mytest" value="filter"></input>

The js code:

//hides divs with class=screen3 and with 99 in its id
$('#myteste').click (function () {
    $('div.screen3[id*="99"]').hide();
});

Now I need to do the opposite, to hide divs that doesn’t contain the string in it’s id but I don’t know how.

Answer 1

You can do that :

$('div.screen3').not('[id~="99"]').hide(); // tests the word (delimited by spaces)

or

$('div.screen3').not('[id*="99"]').hide(); // tests the string
