Question

I have the HTML elements like the following:

<svg width="930" height="450">
  <g transform="translate(.5,.5)">
    <g class="cell" transform="translate(758.6842105263157,0)">
      <text x="85.65789473684211" y="225" dy=".35em" id="text-Summer" text-anchor="middle"  style="display: block;">Summer</text>
    </g>
   <g class="cell" transform="translate(758.6842105263157,0)">
      <text x="85.65789473684211" y="225" dy=".35em" id="text-Winter" text-anchor="middle" style="display: block;">Winter</text>
    </g>
  </g>
</svg>

How can I get the "id" of the svg:text element which is having the text content "Summer" in Javscript.

I tried accessing using

$("svg g text[text='Summer']").attr('id'). 

But it is not getting.

Was it helpful?

Solution 2

You should use something like this:

$("svg g text:contains(Summer)").attr('id')

It means that your selector is not correct.

OTHER TIPS

Sorry, but what for do you need this? Can't you just generate id and text at one time and then get the element with $("svg g text#text-Summer")?
