Question

I have an event handler that triggers an event handler that needs to test if the children of a div contain a certain class.

For now, I’m doing this:

$('#Container .DivData').live({
  mouseenter: function () {
    if ($(this).find('.HiddenData')) {
      // do something
       } ....

The problem is that it always seems to find HiddenData even though sometimes there is none.

What’s the problem here?

Answer 1

try

if ($(this).find('.HiddenData').length > 0) {
  // do something
} ....
