[jQuery] First steps in jQuery: trying to figure the syntax to mix standard Javascript with jQuery
Hello,
Sorry if my question is not worded properly, I'm new to jQuery and still do
not understand its syntax. I've read a lot of examples and it did not help
me much.
I've got this really simple JS function:
function getActiveText(e) {
var text = window.getSelection();
alert(text);
}
That returns the raw selection in an xhtml page.
Now I want to limit what it returns to only what is enclosed in divs of the
class "selectable".
jQuery has the $('div.selectable') selector which selects all <div> elements
with a class name of "selectable".
What I'm missing is the glue code between my function and jQuery's selector.
From there, I should be able to go further with jQuery. Now I'm just getting
confused.
Cheers,
Stéphane
