CsQuery: how to iterate over all elements?

Question

I need to implement a function that returns the first element the has Id attribute that contains a certain string.

in HAP I used to implement it as follows:

    protected HtmlNode GetElementByIdPattern(string pattern)
    {
        return doc
            .DocumentNode
            .Descendants()
            .FirstOrDefault(e => e.Attributes["id"] != null && e.Attributes["id"].Value.Contains(pattern));
    }

How do I loop over all elements in CsQuery?

Answer 1

The solution is:

    protected static CQ GetElementByIdPattern(CQ doc, string contains)
    {
        string select = string.Format("*[id*={0}]", contains);
        return doc.Select(select).First();
    }

Based on the jQuery syntax: $('[id=contains]: first')

Answer 2

 function CQ test(string contains, string selector)
 {
    CsQuery.CQ page="<div id="test first"></div>";
    return page[selector+"[id*="+contains+"]:first"];
 }

It's will return a CQ object you can manipulate with it as you want.
