Question

In jQuery, if I want to attach button style to any tag, I can do this:

$("a").button();

how do I attach button style using dojo to any tag?

Answer 1

Here’s a possible equivalent of your jQuery in dojo:

// Select all 'a' tags.
dojo.query('a').forEach(function(element) {

    // Attach a button to each 'a' tag.
    var button = new dijit.form.Button({
        onClick: function(){ location.href = element.href; }
    }, element);
    button.startup();
});
