Jquery: Checking to see if div contains text, then action

Question

I\'m trying to check in jQuery if a div contains some text, and then add a class if it does.

So I wrote something like this:

    if( $(\"#field >          


        

Answer 1

Why not simply

var item = $('.field-item');
for (var i = 0; i <= item.length; i++) {
       if ($(item[i]).text() == 'someText') {
             $(item[i]).addClass('thisClass');
             //do some other stuff here
          }
     }
