jQuery hide with attributesStartsWith not working as expected
<p>I have a script that populates that hides and shows divs based on whether or not it contains a portion of an Id, then shows the div that contains the full, unique Id passed to the function.  The function is as follows:</p>

<pre><code>function showPlot(plotId) {
  // Hide all plots by switching them to a class
  $('div[id^="plot_"').hide(); //&lt;--Won't hide the divs matching that portion of the Id
  // Show the selected plot by changing it's class
  $('#' + plotId).show('fast');
}
</code></pre>

<p>The problem is the .hide() function won't hide the specified divs as expected.  I might not have the syntax right, but I'm pretty sure it's correct according to the API.  Is there something else I'm missing?  Help is appreciated.</p>
