Rename them from what to what? To change the id of all selects, you can do:
$('select').each(function() {
var oldId = $(this).attr('id');
$(this).attr('id', oldId.substring(0, oldId.lastIndexOf('-')));
});
I'm still not sure what you actually want to do though.

Hi Erik,
I am cloning a DIV container full of elements( selects, inputs and
buttons), they all inherit the name of the original element, but to
differentiate between all, I want to rename all the clones attributes
sequentially, example
div name= container
input name=color
input name=house
/dv
How about something like (untested):
$('#container').clone().attr('id',
'container'+idx).find('*').each(function() {
this.name += idx;
this.id += idx
}).end().appendTo(...);
How you deal with 'idx' is up to you. So that's: select the element with ID
'container', clone it, update the clone's
I have tags like this:
select id=academic_from_month-0
select id=academic_till_month-0
since the ids are variable in length, I would have to find out where
the lastindex() of - is remove that and replace it it with the new
value. My problem is the syntax, is there some kind of Jquery way
Thanks guys, I used a mixture of both your suggestions:
var ident = String(this.name);
changed= ident.substring(0 ,ident.lastIndexOf('-')+1) + suffix;
$(this).removeAttr(id);
$(this).removeAttr(name);
this.name += changed;
this.id += changed;
$(this).attr(clone, changed);
