jquery get only all html elements with ids

I have a div with many many html elements like other divs, trs, tds, tables etc

Is it possible to get all the elements which have an id? I know asking $("#test") will give me the specific element with this id

but is it possible to get find("#") or something like this?!

You can use the following syntax to limit the results:

$('input[id*=test_id]').live('click', callbackFunc());

$('.elements_set[id*=test_id]').live('click', callbackFunc());

or in same manner

$('input[name*=test_id]').live('click', callbackFunc());

You should look into documentation on their selectors. This will show you exactly what to do in any situation when you are selecting something.

Also note that you can use more than one selector at a time, like their example:

$("div,span,p.myClass").css("border","3px solid red");

$('[id]') returns all elements that have id set
