Select Element By Index:-


In any situation, we might want to select an element by index. Jquery allows us to select an element by index. It is very easy to perform this simple task using jquery. we will see different types of examples to understand the topic easily.

If you want to select the first element, use an index of 0. The second element has an index of 1, the third an index of 2, and so on

Select Element By Index Example 1(Less Than)



In the following example we will see how to select all the <p> elements and change the background color that is less than the given index value.

$(‘p:lt(3)’).css(‘background-color’,’lightgreen’); This line tells jquery to select all the <p> element that is less than the index value. Here the index value is 3, so it will select all the <p> element that is less than the 3 and set the background color to lightgreen.

Select Element By Index Example 2 (Greater Than)
