Grundsätzlich kann ich das Element mit nicht mehr auswählen, wenn ich ein div auf eine Seite mit einem data-test
Attribut geladen habe und den Wert mit jquery's ändere.data('test')
$('div[data-test="newValue"]')
var howMany = $('.t[data-test="test"]').length;
$('.result').html('start there are ' + howMany + ' divs with data "test"<br /><br />');
setTimeout(function() {
$('#one, #three').data('test', 'changed');
}, 500);
setTimeout(function() {
var test = $('.t[data-test="test"]').length,
changed = $('.t[data-test="changed"]').length;
$('.result').append('there are ' + test + ' divs still with data "test"<br /><br />there are ' + changed + ' divs still with data "changed"<br /><br />');
}, 1000);
setTimeout(function() {
$('.t').each(function() {
$('.result').append('div #' + $(this).attr('id') + ' has the test data of: ' + $(this).data('test') + '<br /><br />');
});
}, 1500);
