Issues using [attribute!=value] and addclass

Its a fairly small script, but for some reasons im not able to get it working. this is the function 

function stffsort(n) {
	$("[data-stff=" + n + "]").removeClass("hidden");
	$("[data-stff!=" + n + "]").addClass("hidden");
}

however, this piece here $("[data-stff!=" + n + "]") returns the whole page elements.

Yes; it would return everything that doesn't have a data-stff set to that value, including things that don't have a data-stff attribute at all.

Try [data-stff][data-stff!=" + n + "]" and see if that gets you what you're after.

This kind of selector requires the value to be in double-quote marks:

$('[data-stuff!="' + n + '"]')
