[jQuery] Select all block elements

Ethan.Saaris

How would you go about selecting all page elements that have a

display: block;

CSS property using jQuery?

I need to apply some POST effects (such as shadows and filters) to these elements.

My other solution is to add

.isblock

classes to my desired elements and apply effects, but it'd be too much work.

This selects ALL elements on the page that are of display type block. This will include the HTML and body tags. You would need to use NOT selectors to exclude these.

Will this consider external CSS files?

It considers the state of the entire page at that point in time when the selector is run. If you have external CSS styling the page then this should pickup all the display types of type block for all elements. Don't forget that certain elements have that display type by default.

I fixed the link on my original post.

Noticed the broken link, but I copied it and it worked.

Thanks for your solution, I'll try it later today.
