6,028 PointsMy code does not remove Email us text from the work with us element when stick-end event takes place?
I don't want to add class to the anchor tag , instead I want to remove it using its name as selector ie $JquerObject.remove(a) as shown below, however it is not working. This takes place in sticky plugin challenge of using Jqoery plugin course.
$(".animsition").animsition({ inClass: 'fade-in-right-lg', outClass: 'fade-out-right-lg', linkElement: 'header a', inDuration: 1000, outDuration: 500 });
$(".header").sticky({ getWidthFrom: '.container', responsiveWidth: true });
$(".header").on('sticky-start',function(){ $(".description").html('we build <strong>great</strong> apps'); })
$(".header").on('sticky-end',function(){ $(".description").html('we build apps'); })
$(".grid-full h5").sticky({ topSpacing:60, getWidthFrom: '.container', responsiveWidth: true });
$(".grid-full h5").on( 'sticky-start',function(){ $(this).append('<a href="http://youtube.com">Email us</a>'); })
$(".grid-full h5").on( 'sticky-end',function(){ $(this).remove('a'); })

6,028 PointsI got the answer I wrongly assumed that remove(selector) is used to selectively remove the children of the presently selected object instead it is to filter out only those objects that has the selector.
The solution to my problem was thus $(this).children().remove();

$(selector).removeClass('classname')
// To remove tags
$(selector).remove(tag)
