Jquery checking each object key

Question

I have an object like this:

  obj {"name" : "html"
       "name2" : "html"
       "name3" : "html"}

I want to check every a element on a page, and if the object name matches the text in the a element, insert the html for that name.

How can I do this?

Html:

 <div id="paged_view_content">
 <div class="vis_item" align="center">
<a href="/game.php? t=487615717&village=22979&mode=combined&group=5043&screen=overview_villages"   class="group_tooltip">[00 ATT-BUNK]</a>
<a href="/game.php?    t=487615717&village=22979&mode=combined&group=1276&screen=overview_villages"        class="group_tooltip">[01 ATT-NOR]</a></div></div>

My "name"s will exactly match names like [01 ATT-NOR] :)

I can check the names with Indexof, but how do I check for each name in the object, and thenn add the html if it matches?

Just a simple prepend. I had it working but then I got two icons in one place <.< And now its broken again — user3117628

Try

$('#paged_view_content a').text(function (i, text) {
    text = $.trim(text);
    var key = text.substring(1, text.length - 1);
    return obj[key]
})
