[jQuery] Re: Select links that end in .png, .jpg or .gif

[Vincent Robert]

If you want to be able to easily change the extension list, I suggest
refactoring the whole thing :

function getLinkExtensionsSelector(extensions)
{
    return jQuery.map(extensions, function(ext){ return 'a[href$=.'+ext
+']'; }).join(',');
}

var $links = jQuery('.post').find(getLinkExtensionsSelector(['png',
'gif', 'jpg']));
