first time long time.
Trying to select certain elements in a feed based on this selector that some of their children contain. The child div (buried way down in divs within divs) in question looks like this:



<div data-test-id="example-test-id">
...
</div>


Their parent divs look like this:



<div data-grid-item="true">
...
</div>


I want to select any div whose data-grid-item="true", who also contains a child div whose data-test-id="example-test-id" .



Resulting in code that looks like this:



$("div[data-grid-item='true']:has(data-test-id="example-test-id"])").css( "background-color", "red" )


In this case I'm just trying to give the parent div a red background so I can verify that I've selected the correct elements, which doesn't seem to be working. As I'm sure you can tell, I'm a novice at jquery so the above code is what I've been able to glean from lots of googling. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

  • your jquery looks right, except for the quotes. You have double quotes around the selector and inside it. Put single quotes around example-test-id.

It is just a typo, you were so close :



$("div[data-grid-item='true']:has(data-test-id="example-test-id"])")
__________________________________^ Missing '['


Note: The double quotes are also part of the problem you need to replace then by single ones like :



$("div[data-grid-item='true']:has([data-test-id='example-test-id'])")
________________________________________________^_______________^





$("div[data-grid-item='true']:has([data-test-id='example-test-id'])").css("background-color", "red");

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div data-grid-item="true">
<div data-test-id="example-test-id">TEST 1</div>
</div>
<div data-grid-item="true">
