angularjsHow do I get an element in an AngularJS controller?


To get an element in an AngularJS controller, you can use the angular.element method. This method takes a selector and an optional context element as arguments and returns the element.

For example, the following code will select the element with the id myElement and store it in the myElement variable:

var myElement = angular.element('#myElement');

The parts of the code are:

  • angular.element: The method that takes a selector and an optional context element as arguments and returns the element.
  • '#myElement': The selector that is used to select the element with the id myElement.
  • var myElement: The variable that stores the element.
