I have
<div id='cssmenu'>
<ul>
 <li class= 'has-sub'><a href=store.aspx?id=dLYTWvt8EsHOq7Ps2wJA9A%3d%3d&digest=tNy7s/jOrynR4pvMVN6d6Q==><span>Armed Combat</span></a> <ul>
 <li class= 'has-sub'><a href=store.aspx?id=xEDEzZWDRkX8%2fbXoMX2pSQ%3d%3d&digest=tNy7s/jOrynR4pvMVN6d6Q==><span>Armed Combat 1-2</span></a><ul>
 <li class= 'active'><a href=store.aspx?id=TxlSRrnSZ6HDgj%2b2ZSxRhg%3d%3d&digest=tNy7s/jOrynR4pvMVN6d6Q==><span>Dance -1</span></a></li>

and in reqid

var reqid = "<%=Request["id"]%>";

in reqid i will get urlencoded based on menu selection

My jquery code here

$(function () {
                var str = $("#cssmenu").find('li').find('a').attr('href');

                if ($(str).has(reqid)) {

                   var str2 = $("#cssmenu").find('li').find('a').text();
                    $('#selectedmenuitem').html(str2);
                }
            })

if the href attribute encoded url contains selected menu item encodedurl i want to get the matched url .text();
to the #selectedmenuitem label id .

I checked with contains ,has ,am not getting .please suggest me what are other passibilites for this

Before you check the condition you need to decode the href value

Hi

Try this code...

XML

<script type="text/javascript">
        $(function () {

            var reqid = '<%=Request["id"]%>';
            $("#cssmenu li a").each(function () {

                if ($(this).attr('href') == reqid) {
                    $('#selectedmenuitem').html($(this).text());
                }


            });

        })
    </script>

try this..

$(function () {

var reqid = '<%=Request["id"]%>';
$("#cssmenu li a").each(function () {

if ($(this).attr('href').indexOf(reqid) != -1) {
$('#selectedmenuitem').html($(this).text());
}
});

})
