Question

I have an rss feed that spits out plain html so I want to be able to select an
<object> and add a class to it in order to be able to style it.

This is the jquery code I wrote but it seems to not be working.

$(document).ready(function(){
    var vid = $("select[name=object]");
    $(“vid”).addClass(“youtube”);
});

I am relatively new to using Jquery.

EDIT:
Figured it out:

$(document).ready(function(){
    vid = $("object");
    vid.addClass("youtube");
}

Thanks for the help guys!

Answer 1

$(document).ready(function(){
    var vid = $("select[name='object']");
    vid.addClass(“youtube”);
});

try this. You already have the jquery object just call addClass off of it. Also I put single quotes around the value of your name attribute, not sure if this matters but it is good code convension none the less
