Identifying a DOM by something other than id (ie: it's href tag) in jquery
<p>The title covers most of my question.
Instead of:</p>

<pre><code>$('#id').slideUp();
</code></pre>

<p>I need to be able to select a particular area tag in an image map in a similar way, by virtue of the string in its href tag. I'm sure this involves the .attr() function but in what way I don't know.<br />
Could a resident genius help me please. Many thanks.</p>
