Quick Reference
The has() method returns all elements that have one or more elements inside of them, that matches the specified selector. To select elements that have multiple elements inside of them, separate the elements with commas.
$('p').has()// choose paragraphs with a span within and applies CSS to the paragraph
$('p').has('span').css('color', 'red');Syntax
$(selector).has(element)Note
It is generally good practice to place your jQuery code/function inside the document load function so that the action takes place ONLY after the document has finished loading. This ensures that all of the page elements that you may be selecting are in place before running the code on them.

- When using jQuery, single or double quotation marks are acceptable and work identically to one another; choose whichever you prefer, and stay consistent
We’d like to acknowledge that we learned a great deal of our coding from W3Schools and TutorialsPoint, borrowing heavily from their teaching process and excellent code examples. We highly recommend both sites to deepen your experience, and further your coding journey. We’re just hitting the basics here at 1SMARTchicken.
