I am trying to find an element with a particular style and change its style to something else.
Here is the html element
<table style='width: 555px;'>
<tr>
<td>blablabla</td>
</tr>
</table>
Now I am trying to find the table with width 555px and change it to 650px using jquery.
$('table[style*=width:555px]').css("width", "610px");
But this is not working. Can somebody spark an idea please?
NOTE: For some reason I cannot change the html.
Beware of spaces :)
And you should quote the value with "
or '
.
$('table[style*="width: 555px"]').css("width", "610px");
If it does not work in IE, you could try to remove the space? (totally untested!)
$('table[style*="width: 555px"],table[style*="width:555px"]')
.css("width", "610px");
$('table').filter(function() {
return $(this).css('width') == '555px';
}).css("width", "610px");
Well the obvious issue is that your element is a <table>
and your jQuery selector is selecting all <div>
s.
I'd imagine there's also an issue with whitespace too, as your HTML contains spacing within the style element but your selector doesn't. (I may be wrong here, not experienced with the E[a*=v]
selector.)
