Question

I would like to use jquery to update my attribute value, because I want the visitor when click the facebook likes then the likes’ post will show different thumbnail in one html.

<link rel="img_src" href="myimg.jpg">

so I try to use the following code:-

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("link").attr("href", myLinkFromXML);
});

but seem like not work.

Do you guys have any idea on this?

Thanks for advance. 🙂

There’s no reason your code shouldn’t have worked, except it would wipe out every stylesheet link tag href also

To target a specific one:

$('link[rel="img_src"]').attr('href', myLinkFromXML);

Now the issue is variable myLinkFromXML defined? I suspect from it’s name you want this done in the success of an xml ajax call
