Question

I have a variable that contains several HTML nodes that have the same classes. I would like to cycle through each of them, and am wondering how I would do it.

I have tried the following, but nothing happened (console did not print out anything).

var myVar = "<div class='item'>Item01</div>" +
            "<div class='item'>Item02</div>" +
            "<div class='item'>Item03</div>";

$(myVar).find('.item').each( function() {
    console.log( $(this) ); //console does not output anything
}

Answer 1

$(myVar).find('.item') will not contain anything.

What you need to do is:

$(myVar).has('.item').each(...)

Or just:

$(myVar).each(...)
