Question

I’m looking for a way to select the all the divs which has a sub link element with a specific id.

Structure

<div>
<a href="#" id="123">link</a>
</div>

How do I select the div with jquery?

Answer 1

You can use the :has^docs selector.

$('div:has(>#123)')

as mentioned, you should not use numbers for ids. You can prefix them with something like id_ and remove that when you want the actual number.

update

added the > to the selector used by the :has to only select the div that has the link as a direct child.
