[jQuery] Selecting elements based on exact content

[jQuery] Selecting elements based on exact content


Hi all
The :contains(text) selector will select any element that contains the
specified text (similar to a like '%stuff%' database query).
How can I find only exact matches?
i.e. if I'm searching for 'ants', to find only elements containing the
text 'ants', and not elements containing the text 'pants' or 'antsy'?
Thanks
David
