jQuery pass specific div ID

How do I do this? I have a function which is passed the ID of a link. I need to write my function something like:

function areYouSure(id){
$('.sure' + id).html('blah blah blah');
}

The div is called "sure". How do I pass in the ID to the jquery object? This doesn't work.

The . is for class accessor use #

like this:

function areYouSure(id){
$('#' + id).html('blah blah blah');
}

if you have all elements with class="sure" inside a <div> element with different id then do it like this:

function areYouSure(id){
$('div#'+ id + '.sure').html('blah blah blah');
}

Try:

function areYouSure(id){
  $('#' + id).html('blah blah blah');
}

Since you are passing the id, you can just look up that element via that id.
