jQuery select based on text

I am learning drupal. I want to add some jquery to a site. I know I can and probably will later, go back and add id’s and classes so I can access things easier, but I want to know how to use ‘has’ or ‘contents’ and or ‘filter’ correctly.

On my page I have a ton of paragraphs, I want to select the <p>‘s based on their contents and then do something with them, so for example I want:

jQuery('p').has('What is Supplemental').css('background-color', 'red')

How would I do that?

Site example here: http://surety.lfwebz.com

Thank you for your insight.

Answer 1

how about :contains?

$('p:contains("What is Supplemental")').css('background-color','red');
