<html>
<head>
<title>The Selecter Example</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#result1").text( $("p#pid1").hasClass("red") );
$("#result2").text( $("p#pid2").hasClass("red") );
});
</script>
<style>
.red { color:red; }
.blue { color:blue; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p class="red" id="pid1">This is first paragraph.</p>
<p class="blue" id="pid2">This is second paragraph.</p>
<div id="result1"></div>
