Get all items that start with class name

I'm trying to only show certain divs. The way I have decided to do this is to first hide all elements that start with "page" and then only show the correct divs. Here's my (simplified) code:

<form>    
    <input type="text" onfocus="showfields(1);">
    <input type="text" onfocus="showfields(2);">
</form>
<div class="page1 row">Some content</div>
<div class="page1 row">Some content</div>
<div class="page2 row">Some content</div>
<div class="page2 row">Some content</div>
<script>
    function showfields(page){
        //hide all items that have a class starting with page*
        var patt1 = /^page/;
        var items = document.getElementsByClassName(patt1);
        console.log(items);
        for(var i = 0; i < items.length; i++){
            items[i].style.display = "none";
        }

        //now show all items that have class 'page'+page
        var item = document.getElementsByClassName('page' + page);
        item.style.display = '';
    }
</script>

When I console.log(items); I get a blank array. I'm pretty sure the regexp is right (get all items starting with 'page'). The code I'm using is old school JS, but I'm not adverse to using jQuery. Also if there is a solution that doesn't use regexp, that's fine too as I'm new to using regexp's.

getElementsByClassName only matches on classes, not bits of classes. You can't pass a regular expression to it (well, you can, but it will be type converted to a string, which is unhelpful).

The best approach is to use multiple classes…

<div class="page page1">

i.e. This div is a page, it is also a page1.

Then you can simply document.getElementsByClassName('page').

Failing that, you can look to querySelector and a substring matching attribute selector:

document.querySelectorAll("[class^=page]")

… but that will only work if pageSomething is the first listed class name in the class attribute.

document.querySelectorAll("[class*=page]")

… but that will match class attributes which mention "page" and not just those with classes which start with "page" (i.e. it will match class="not-page".

That said, you could use the last approach and then loop over .classList to confirm if the element should match.

var potentials = document.querySelectorAll("[class*=page]");
console.log(potentials.length);
elementLoop:
  for (var i = 0; i < potentials.length; i++) {
    var potential = potentials[i];
    console.log(potential);
    classLoop:
      for (var j = 0; j < potential.classList.length; j++) {
        if (potential.classList[j].match(/^page/)) {
          console.log("yes");
          potential.style.background = "green";
          continue elementLoop;
        }
      }
    console.log("no");
    potential.style.background = "red";
  }

<div class="page">Yes</div>
<div class="notpage">No</div>
<div class="some page">Yes</div>
<div class="pageXXX">Yes</div>
<div class="page1">Yes</div>
<div class="some">Unmatched entirely</div>

You cannot use RegExp inside a selector
but you can use Document.querySelectorAll() and thanElement.classList.contains()

function showfields(page){
  
  var items = document.querySelectorAll("[class*=page].row");
  
  [].forEach.call(items, function(el){
      el.style.display = el.classList.contains("page"+ page) ? "" : "none";
  });

}

<form>    
    <input type="text" onfocus="showfields(1);">
    <input type="text" onfocus="showfields(2);">
</form>
<div class="page1 row">Some content1</div>
<div class="page1 row">Some content1</div>
<div class="page2 row">Some content2</div>
<div class="page2 row">Some content2</div>

Additionally, to prevent false-positives (like i.e: class="row pageCool") being matched, you could try to be more specific using your selectors like i.e: adding a parent ID...

 ...rAll("#togglablePagesParent [class*=page]")

You can use jQuery solution..

var $divs = $('div[class^="page"]');

This will get all the divs which start with classname page

Previous answers contain parts of the correct one, but none really gives it.

To do this, you need to combine two selectors in a single query, using the comma , separator.

The first part would be [class^="page"], which will find all the element whose class attribute begins with page, and thus not viable for elements with multiple classes, which is fixed by [class*=" page"] which will find all elements whose class attribute have somewhere the string " page"(note the space at the beginning).

By combining both selectors, we have our classStartsWith selector:

document.querySelectorAll('[class^="page"],[class*=" page"]')
  .forEach(el => el.style.backgroundColor = "green");

<div class="page">Yes</div>
<div class="notpage">No</div>
<div class="some page">Yes</div>
<div class="pageXXX">Yes</div>
<div class="page1">Yes</div>
<div class="some">Unmatched entirely</div>

 $(document).ready(function () {
        $("[class^=page]").show();
        $("[class^=page]").hide();
    });

Use this to show hide div's with specific css class it will show/hide all div's with css class mention.
