Try matching the url with this: $("[EMAIL PROTECTED]'"+url+"']").each(....It should find a match whether the url is absolute or relative.

Standard readers will still see the full links so this is not a very accessible solution. Best to do it server-side if possible. Anyway, regarding your specific questions: > 1) "I need a way to not to add the span tag for any links under who's > parent node is a H1." Not sure what you mean about the span tag, sorry. Can you use .filter() or .not() to do this? > 2) "in need of tiding up..." Here's some code to simplify things a bit: var url = document.location.href; $("[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" + url + "']").each(function(){ var $this = $(this); var txtEl = document.createTextNode( $this.text() ); $this.parent()[0].replaceChild(txtEl, this); }) A word of caution: When reading A.href from code code you may find it varies depending on the browser. It may or may not include the full url path. This will cause it not match the document.location.href. Perhaps you could experiment with "$=" instead of "=" in the selector syntax (see jquery selector docs) George ProDevStudio wrote: > > Hello everyone, > > Just started using jquery.
