Question

I got this line in my script, which check the items class:

$('#post').attr('class');

Is there a chance, to read it like:

$('#post*').attr('class');

So if the ID will be fe. post405 it will still read this?
I’ve checked it and it won’t work with * , so so there any other way to read items this way?

Answer 1

$('[id^=post]').attr('class');

You’re looking for the [attribute^=*] selector.
