Select elements by attribute

if ($('#A').attr('myattr')) {
    // attribute exists
} else {
    // attribute does not exist
}

EDIT:

The above will fall into the else-branch when myattr exists but is an empty string or “0”. If that’s a problem you should explicitly test on undefined:

if ($('#A').attr('myattr') !== undefined) {
    // attribute exists
} else {
    // attribute does not exist
}
