JQuery add variable to selector [duplicate]

by

i try to add a variable to the jquery selector to add a css class in leaflet.

var abc = $(TEST._icon);
abc.addClass('pulse');

or

$(TEST._icon).addClass('pulse');

works good. now i want a variable for TEST – so i try following without success:

var abc = "TEST";
$(abc + "._icon").addClass('pulse');

can anybody help?

thank you!

    If TEST is a global variable, $(window[abc] + "._icon"). If it’s a local variable, you can’t access it dynamically.

  • Sorry, I got confused about what you’re doing. It should be $(window[abc]._icon). You don’t need concatenation.
