.each loop iterate based on element type and name

Question

Currently I have the following:

 $("textarea").each(function () {

    });

I like to do the loop only for textareas where the element name starts with dvSummary.

Take a look at the appropriate jQuery selector's documentation: https://api.jquery.com/attribute-starts-with-selector/ — Aioros, Jan 16 '19 at 22:22

Use an 'attribute value starts with' selector, such as:

$("textarea[name^='dvSummary']")

Bare code is not useful without some explanation of what and how it achieves, possible side effects if any etc. – ivan_pozdeev Jan 16 '19 at 23:08
