Question

I have html:

<div class="arrow-inner arrow-first arrow-border">
 CAREER <strong>1.000</strong>
</div>

Jquery:

function battingAve1000(){
    var maxBatAve = "1.000";
    var batAve = $(".arrow-first strong").html();

    if(maxBatAve == batAve)
        $(".arrow-first strong").css('font-size', 20);
}

But it doesn’t seem to work? Not sure why, seems right…

Answer 1

This will work

function battingAve1000(){
var maxBatAve = "1.000";
var batAve = $(".arrow-first").find('strong').html();
console.log($(".arrow-first").find('strong').html())
if(maxBatAve == batAve)
    $(".arrow-first").find('strong').css('font-size', 20);}

But yes check out firebug for firefox and learn about console.log() to see what your vars are returning.

Actually your code does work, you just didn’t call the function perhaps? See this http://jsfiddle.net/FWPd2/
