JQuery selectors

Question

I am trying to take this from a view source, i.e.:

<a  href="javascript:validateCB();"><img src="wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=1343380920146312332&p_flow_id=222&p_fname=submit_btn.gif" alt="Submit Details" border="0"  />

in jQuery selector format

var $templateButtons = $('img[src^="wwv_flow_file_mgr"]').parent('a');

But that does not seem right.

Any ideas on how to translate the above view source code into jQuery?

Thank you, Tony.

Answer 1

Problem with attribute selector: $('img[src^="wwv_flow_file_mgr"]')

You are experiencing a known bug in jQuery v1.3.2 - jQuery tries to interpret the image path using its absolute URL, which means the actual URL that it compares starts with " http://..."

, *= ( , "wwv_flow_file_mgr" , ):

var $templateButtons = $('img[src*="wwv_flow_file_mgr"]').parent('a');

var $templateButtons = $("img")
                       .filter(function(){
                             return $(this).attr('src')
                                    .indexOf('wwv_flow_file_mgr')==0;
                       }).parent('a');
