How can I select an element with multiple classes?

1873

I want to select all the elements that have the two classes a and b.

So, only the elements that have both classes.

When I use $(".a, .b") it gives me the union, but I want the intersection.

If you want an intersection, just write the selectors together without spaces in between.

$('.a.b')

So for an element that has an ID of a with classes b and c, you would write:

$('#a.b.c')

You can do this using the filter function:

$(".a").filter(".b")
