is there anyway in jquery to have a class selector but without one id

i have this code:

   function DisableDropDownsMonth() {
        $(".filterDropdown").val(0);
        $(".filterDropdown").attr("disabled", "disabled");
    }

to disable a bunch of select dropdowns that all have this class. I have a new requirement to call this on every ".filterDropdo开发者_如何转开发wn" EXCEPT if the id = "#firstDropdown"

is there any syntax for this in jquery?

You can use the :not() selector to exclude it, like this:

$(".filterDropdown:not(#firstDropDown)").attr("disabled", "disabled");

Or possibly judging by your ID, :gt() like this:

$(".filterDropdown:gt(0)").attr("disabled", "disabled");

This would disable all except the very first class="filterDropdown" in the DOM.

should be something like $(".filterDropdown:not(#firstDropdown)");

you can use following syntax

$(".filterDropdown[id!=firstDropdown]").attr("disabled", "disabled");
