    $(&quot;span:contains(&#39;FIND ME&#39;)&quot;)

ETA:

The contains selector is nice, but filtering a list of spans if probably quicker: http://jsperf.com/jquery-contains-vs-filter

    $(&quot;span&quot;).filter(function() { return ($(this).text().indexOf(&#39;FIND ME&#39;) &gt; -1) }); -- anywhere match
    $(&quot;span&quot;).filter(function() { return ($(this).text() === &#39;FIND ME&#39;) }); -- exact match

Use [contains][1]:

    $(&quot;span:contains(&#39;FIND ME&#39;)&quot;)


  [1]: http://api.jquery.com/contains-selector/

By the way, if you&#39;d like to use this with a variable, you&#39;d do it this way:

    function findText() {
        $(&#39;span&#39;).css(&#39;border&#39;, &#39;none&#39;);  //reset all of the spans to no border
        var find = $(&#39;#txtFind&#39;).val();   //where txtFind is a simple text input for your search value
        if (find != null &amp;&amp; find.length &gt; 0) {
            //search every span for this content
            $(&quot;span:contains(&quot; + find + &quot;)&quot;).each(function () {
                $(this).css(&#39;border&#39;, &#39;solid 2px red&#39;);    //mark the content
            });
         }
    }

I think this will work
 
    var span;
    $(&#39;span&#39;).each(function(){
      if($(this).html() == &#39;FIND ME&#39;){
        span = $(this);
      }
    });


How can I determine the **Physical Sector Size** (e.g. if i have an [Advanced Format](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Format) drive with 4,096 byte sectors rather than the legacy 512 byte sectors) in Windows 7?

I know that by clicking on a file and get properties we can find out the NTFS *Cluster Size*, but that&#39;s not the same as the hard-drive&#39;s *sector* size.

**Note**: We ask about Windows 7 because it (and Windows Vista SP1) understand the existence of 4096 Advanced Format hard drives.

I have 3 classes:

    public class Alpha {
        public Number number;
    }
    
    public class Beta extends Alpha {
        public String number;
    }
    
    public class Gama extends Beta {
        public int number;
    }

Why does the following code compile? And, why does the test pass without any runtime errors?

    @Test
    public void test() {
        final Beta a = new Gama();
        a.number = &quot;its a string&quot;;
        ((Alpha) a).number = 13;
        ((Gama) a).number = 42;
    
        assertEquals(&quot;its a string&quot;, a.number);
        assertEquals(13, ((Alpha) a).number);
        assertEquals(42, ((Gama) a).number);
    }

If you overwrite a field in a subclass of a class, the subclass has two fields with the same name(and different type)?

How do I find the span containing the text &quot;FIND ME&quot;

    &lt;div&gt;
       &lt;span&gt;FIND ME&lt;/span&gt;
       &lt;span&gt;dont find me&lt;/span&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;

How do I select a span containing a specific text value, using jquery?

How do I find the span containing the text "FIND ME"
<pre><code class="hljs language-css">&#x3C;div>
 &#x3C;span>FIND ME&#x3C;/span>
 &#x3C;span>dont find me&#x3C;/span>
&#x3C;/div>

I have two arrays. The first array contains some values while the second array contains indices of the values which should be removed from the first array. For example:  

    var valuesArr = new Array(&quot;v1&quot;,&quot;v2&quot;,&quot;v3&quot;,&quot;v4&quot;,&quot;v5&quot;);   
    var removeValFromIndex = new Array(0,2,4);

I want to remove the values present at indices `0,2,4` from `valuesArr`. I thought the native `splice` method might help so I came up with:

    $.each(removeValFromIndex,function(index,value){
        valuesArr.splice(value,1);
    });
        

But it didn&#39;t work because after each `splice`, the indices of the values in `valuesArr` were different. I could solve this problem by using a temporary array and copying all values to the second array, but I was wondering if there are any native methods to which we can pass multiple indices at which to remove values from an array.

I would prefer a jQuery solution. (Not sure if I can use `grep` here)

I know that in JS, objects are passed by reference, for example:

    function test(obj) {
        obj.name = &#39;new name&#39;;
    }
    
    var my_obj = { name: &#39;foo&#39; };
    test(my_obj);
    alert(my_obj.name); // new name

But why doesn&#39;t the below work:

    function test(obj) {
        obj = {};
    }
    
    var my_obj = { name: &#39;foo&#39; };
    test(my_obj);
    alert(my_obj.name); // foo

I have set the object to `{}` (empty) but it still says `foo`.

Can any one explain the logic behind this?

Why isn&#39;t this object being passed by reference when assigning something else to it?

&lt;h1&gt;How do I reset the datepicker calendar values?.. The min and max date restrictions?&lt;/h1&gt;

The problem is that when I clear the dates (by deleting the textbox values), the previous date restrictions are still applied.

I&#39;ve been sorting through the &lt;a href=&quot;http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Datepicker&quot;&gt;documentation&lt;/a&gt; and nothing jumped out as a solution. I also wasn&#39;t able to find a quick fix on a SO/google search

&lt;a href=&quot;http://jsfiddle.net/CoryDanielson/tF5MH/&quot;&gt;http://jsfiddle.net/CoryDanielson/tF5MH/&lt;/a&gt;

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

**&lt;h2&gt;Solution:&lt;/h2&gt;** 
    
    // from &amp; to input textboxes with datepicker enabled
    var dates = $(&quot;input[id$=&#39;dpFrom&#39;], input[id$=&#39;dpTo&#39;]&quot;);

    // #clearDates is a button to clear the datepickers
    $(&#39;#clearDates&#39;).on(&#39;click&#39;, function(){
        dates.attr(&#39;value&#39;, &#39;&#39;);
        dates.each(function(){
            $.datepicker._clearDate(this);
        });
    });​​

_.clearDate() is a private method of the DatePicker object. You won&#39;t find it in the public API on jQuery UI&#39;s website, but it works like a charm.
