Need to use jQuery.find to find element with specific style

Question

Right... I need to find all < ul style=\"display: block;\"> elements, so that I can set it do display:none.

I think I\'m on the right path here... but not quite t

That's tricky as stated but is solvable other ways. The easiest is:

$("#adminMenu li ul:visible").hide();

assuming items are either hidden or not. Of course, considering you want to hide them all why not just:

$("#adminMenu li ul").hide();

Try and avoid changing CSS style directly. It's problematic. It's hard to reverse and as you're discovering hard to search for. Use a class instead:

#adminMenu li ul { display: none; }
ul.block { display: block; }

with:

$("#adminMenu li ul").removeClass("block");

or

$("#adminMenu li ul.block").removeClass("block");
