Jquery – Find all elements on a page whose element ID contains a certain text using jQuery

Use the shell globbing syntax:

grep pattern -r --include=\*.cpp --include=\*.h rootdir

The syntax for --exclude is identical.

Note that the star is escaped with a backslash to prevent it from being expanded by the shell (quoting it, such as --include="*.cpp", would work just as well). Otherwise, if you had any files in the current working directory that matched the pattern, the command line would expand to something like grep pattern -r --include=foo.cpp --include=bar.cpp rootdir, which would only search files named foo.cpp and bar.cpp, which is quite likely not what you wanted.

I've edited the original answer to remove the use of brace expansion, which is a feature provided by several shells such as Bash and zsh to simplify patterns like this; but note that brace expansion is not POSIX shell-compliant.

The original example was:

grep pattern -r --include=\*.{cpp,h} rootdir

to search through all .cpp and .h files rooted in the directory rootdir.

$("#item").removeClass();

Calling removeClass with no parameters will remove all of the item's classes.

You can also use (but it is not necessarily recommended. The correct way is the one above):

$("#item").removeAttr('class');
$("#item").attr('class', '');
$('#item')[0].className = '';

If you didn't have jQuery, then this would be pretty much your only option:

document.getElementById('item').className = '';
