Question
Attribute "Start With" in jquery is very simple, but i have a problem How use this attribute for current element? As example i tried:
$('this[id^= "PostTypes"]')
AND
$(this[id^= "PostTypes"])
But nothing want works.
Solution
Try,
$('[id^= "PostTypes"]', this); // if you want to find the elements that are descendants of this.
Or if you want to check if the current element is a match then you can use .is(selector):
$(this).is('[id^= "PostTypes"]'); //Check if this element is havind the id startswith PostTypes.
Example:
if($(this).is('[id^= "PostTypes"]')){
//Current element starts with id PostTypes, do something with it.
}
OTHER TIPS
Use filter()
$(this).filter('[id^= "PostTypes"]')
I believe you want:
$('[id^="PostTypes"]', this)
