$('*[data-customerID="22"]');
You should be able to omit the *
, but if I recall correctly, depending on which jQuery version you’re using, this might give faulty results.
Note that for compatibility with the Selectors API (document.querySelector{,all}
), the quotes around the attribute value (22
) may not be omitted in this case.
Also, if you work with data attributes a lot in your jQuery scripts, you might want to consider using the HTML5 custom data attributes plugin. This allows you to write even more readable code by using .dataAttr('foo')
, and results in a smaller file size after minification (compared to using .attr('data-foo')
).
