Below is my code and currently it searches the whole webpage. I'm trying to figure out how to make it search only within a table. (There is only one table on the page).
Any help would be appreciated.
var TargetLink = $("a:contains('gg')");
var TargetSink = $("a:contains('u')");
if (TargetLink && TargetLink.length)
{
window.location.href = TargetLink[0].href;
}
else if (TargetSink && TargetSink.length)
{
window.location.href = TargetSink[0].href;
}
var TargetLink = $("table a:contains('gg')");
var TargetSink = $("table a:contains('u')");
EDIT: You say there is only one table on the page. Do you absolutely know there will only ever be one table? Even if you think the answer is yes, I would try and add an id or class selector so that things won't break in the future.
Also, the following code can be simplified:
if (TargetLink && TargetLink.length)
to:
if (TargetLink.length)
Re: "could I combine those 2 variables into 1"
:
Use a comma in the selector, like so:
//--- Need more of the HTML structure for a better selector.
var TargetLink = $("table")
.find ("a:contains('gg'), a:contains('u')")
;
if (TargetLink.length) {
window.location.href = TargetLink[0].href;
}
If both kind of links are found, 'gg'
will be used (first).
