Using the url of the page I have been able to get the value edc into a variable but what I need to do is find the data-ttl where data-uri is equal to edc.
If PHP this would be easy but I'm unsure how to go about it in jQuery
domain.com/media-centre/video/edc
HTML
<li class="item" data-id="id-7" data-type="services">
<a href="#" data-uri='edc' data-ttl='Engineering'>
<img src="/assets/img/media-centre/videos/edc.png">
<div class="itemcontent">
<h2>Engineering</h2>
</div>
</a>
</li>
JQUERY - my tried and failed attempt
var permatitle = $('a').attr('data-uri').val('edc');
SORTED
var permatitle = $('a[data-uri="edc"]').attr('data-ttl');

Use this selector:
$('a[data-uri="edc"]')
Then you can read data attribute like:
$('a[data-uri="edc"]').data('edc')
