I am not sure if "concatenate" is the correct term for it, but something like this:
$("#a").$("#b").$("#c").$("#d").click(); // click on all of them
Basically I have a long list of stuff but I can't apply a class to them.

2Your sample code is basically saying "find the #a element, then look for a #b element inside #a, then look for a #c inside #b, and a #d inside #c". Phrogz has the solution below.Marc B– Marc B2011-12-13 17:56:33 +00:00Commented Dec 13, 2011 at 17:56

As in CSS, you can use a comma to separate multiple selectors:
$("#a, #b, #c, #d").click();
Note that these do not have to be the same kind of selector. For example:
// Click the menu, all spans in all .foo, and paragraphs after headers
$("#menu, div.foo span, h1 + p").click();
Also, if you already have the jQuery objects, you can add() the sets like so:
var a = $('#a'), b = $('#b'), c = $('#c');
var all = a.add(b).add(c);

I used your .add.add solution because I find string to be not elegant. Thanks!
You can concatenate selectors using comma(,) separator. Try this.
$("#a,#b,#c,#d").click();
Comments
do a comma
$("#a,#b,#c,#d").click()
