jquery 根据class名 赋值_jQuery使用变量名称通过类选择元素

I want to do somethings in jQuery to all the elements which match on a certain class name. The class name comes from a variable. How do I do the select using by class using my variable?

var x = $(this).attr('href').slice(1);

this will set x equal to the name of the class I want.

now I want to select all the elements with that class name

I try stuff like this but it doesn't work

$(.x.show().addClass('active').siblings().hide().removeClass('active');

basic basically I want affect all the elements with where class = x

Finally, instead of setting x to the class name, can I just get my array of classes in the first variable assignment?

i.e. instead of

var x = $(this).attr('href').slice(1);

can I do this [pseudo code]:

var x = classname is $(this).attr('href').slice(1);

Selector is nothing more than just a string. So you could use

$('.' + classname)

where classname is a variable that holds particular class name
