It doesn t work because it s syntactically nonsensical  You simply can t do that in JavaScript like that   You can  however  use jQuery     if    this  is   href          You can also just look at the  href  value     if        test this href

Along with the points made by others  the    selector is the  ends with  selector   You will want the     contains  selector  like so      a   each function         if    this  is   href                   alert  Contains questionmark                Here s a live demo -   As noted by Matt Ball  unless you will need to also manipulate links without a question mark  which may be the case  since you say your example is simplified   it would be less code and much faster to simply select only the links you want to begin with      a href         each function         alert  Contains questionmark

You could just outright select the elements of interest      a href         each function         alert  Contains question mark          http   jsfiddle net mattball TzUN3   Note that you were using the attribute-ends-with selector  the above code uses the attribute-contains selector  which is what it sounds like you re actually aiming for
