Pseudo-class :contains in jQuery

The pseudo-class contains selects elements based on the presence of certain text in them.

In the following example, we have a paragraph that contains the word 'text':

<p>test "text"</p> <p>test</p>

With :contains , the element will be selected if the string is present directly inside it, or if it is present inside one of its descendants.

$('p:contains("text")');

Get and color red all li that contain the text 'text'.
