jQuery attribute name contains

by

I don’t think you can target attribute names the same way you target attribute values. You can, however, use .filter() to do this somewhat efficiently:

$('div').filter(function() {
  for (var property in $(this).data()) {
    if (property.indexOf('fooBar') == 0) {
      return true;
    }
  }

  return false;
});​

Notice that data-foo-bar has been converted to fooBar.
