Question

I have made a function here:

function locationOfVideo(){//Outputs video location div according to post text
    var ytVideoDiv = '<div class="youtube-video"><div id="<?php echo $divName; ?>-video"></div></div>';

    $j('#main .content:contains("<--video-->")').replace('<--video-->', ytVideoDiv);
}

I thought this would work, but I am sorely mistaken and a bit tired. Anyways, what am i doing wrong here?

Answer 1

Don’t use <--video--> in your html, change to some other like {video}.

Then do it with:

$('#main .content:contains("{video}")').replaceWith(function() {
  return $(this).text().replace('{video}', ytVideoDiv);
});
