USe .each() to loop through each node

$("#gh").click(function() {
    $("#new_attr").find('.showItLink').each(function(){
      alert($(this).attr("textToShow"));
    });
});

Fiddle

If you want to get the exact node which contains a specific attribute value, use like this

 $('.showItLink[textToShow="This is the text to show0"]')

you acheive the scenario through .each() in jquery

$("#gh").click(function() {


   $("#new_attr").find('.showItLink').each(function() {
        if($(this).attr("textToShow") == "This is the text to show5") {
        alert ('found');
    }else{
        alert ('not found');
    }


    });

});
