Question

I have jquery code that puts borders around <p> tags but it is also doing so for <p> tags with no text or child nodes in them. I was wondering if I could ignore <p> tags that have no content inside them. Would “not has” be considered here?

p tags with spaces should also be ignored

Answer 1

Try:

$("p:not(:empty)").css("border", "1px solid red");

You can try it here.
