Categories: Attribute | jQuery Extensions
jQuery('[attribute!="value"]')
Description: Select elements that either don't have the specified attribute, or do have the specified attribute but not with a certain value.
-
jQuery('[attribute!="value"]')
version added: 1.0attribute An attribute name.
value An attribute value. Quotes are mandatory.
This selector is equivalent to :not([attr="value"])
.
Note:
Because[name!="value"]
is a jQuery extension and not part of the CSS specification, queries using [name!="value"]
cannot take advantage of the performance boost provided by the native DOM querySelectorAll()
method. For better performance in modern browsers, use $("your-pure-css-selector").not('[name="value"]')
instead.
