Just so you know, CSS supports [x=y] notation, but jQuery uses [EMAIL PROTECTED] so we can use plain [] for "contains"

Yeah I knew it was the attribute selection that was XPath. Thanks for the link, too! :o) BTW, Karl. Your solution worked great!

That's XPath notation, right? I've got to pick some of that up. I know next to nothing about it. There seems to be a problem with the example I gave in my original post, so I'm going to give your solution a shot. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks!

I'd like to be able to get the dateValue that is associated with each td that has a status of "on". Is there a better way to do that than this: $("td).attr("status").each(function(){ if(this.status == "on"){ //do whatever it is i'm going to do... } }); I'm thinkin' this might be it, but thought I'd check with the group to see if maybe there was a more super-cool way to accomplish this. :o) Thanks, Chris -- http://www.cjordan.info _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/ ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED]://jquery.com/discuss/ -- http://www.cjordan.info ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED]://jquery.com/discuss/ ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED]://jquery.com/discuss/ -- http://www.cjordan.info _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
