How To Add A Value To An Attribute Using jQuery?
To add a value to an attribute using jQuery, you can use the attr
function.
Here’s an example of how to use the attr
function to add a value to the href
attribute of a link element:
$('a').attr('href', 'https://www.nilebits.com');
This will set the href
attribute of all a
elements on the page to https://www.nilebits.com
.
You can also use the attr
function to set multiple attributes at once by passing it an object that maps attribute names to their corresponding values:
$('a').attr({ 'href': 'https://www.nilebits.com', 'title': 'Example website' });
This will set the href
and title
attributes of all a
elements on the page to the specified values.
Keep in mind that the attr
function only sets the value of the attribute. If the attribute does not already exist, it will not be added to the element. To add a new attribute to an element, you can use the attr
function to set the value of the attribute, or you can use the prop
function to set the value and add the attribute if it does not already exist.
