JavaScript to add class not working?

Question

I have the following JS function:

function addTopLinks() {

    $('#calendar .fc-view-resourceNextWeeks thead th .fc-resourceName')
 .addClass('top-cell');
};

It is not adding the class.

I have another:

function addDayClass() {
    $('#calendar .fc-view-resourceNextWeeks thead th')
        .filter(function () {
            if ($(this).text().indexOf('Mon ') == 0) return true;

            return false;
        })
        .addClass('monday');
};

That one works just fine.

This is the hierarchy:

I am really not sure why the first one is working and not this one...

Thanks

Can you show us where you call addTopLinks?

why are you being so specific to target fc-resourceName ?

Can't you just use .find()?

Change your selector, instead of:

'#calendar .fc-view-resourceNextWeeks thead th .fc-resourceName'

try:

'#calendar .fc-view-resourceNextWeeks thead th.fc-resourceName'

$('#calendar .fc-view-resourceNextWeeks thead th .fc-resourceName').addClass('top-cell');

should be

$('#calendar .fc-view-resourceNextWeeks thead th.fc-resourceName').addClass('top-cell');

(Note the removal of the space between th and .fc-resourceName)

The first one is looking for another element inside the th with class .fc-resourceName, while you actually want that element.
