Jquery add class based on a href

I'm trying to add a class based on the table cell starting with a particular a href.

This is the HTML:

  <tr class="odd">
    <td class=" sorting_1">
      <a href="/workorders/1">13-10000</a>
    </td>

I thought this would work, but it doesn't:

$('a[href$^="/workorders/"]').addClass("boldnowrap");

I'm actually using coffeescript:

$('a[href$^="/workorders/"]').addClass "boldnowrap"

Thanks!

The [href$^="..."] part is invalid selector.

You're looking for one of these, I think:

$('a[href^="/workorders/"]').addClass("boldnowrap");
$('a[href*="/workorders/"]').addClass("boldnowrap");

Beware that the second one will match everytime /workorders/ is found in your href, what may not be what you want.
