How to read in an id element that has an href

I am trying to remove the content referenced by the following id:
<...id href="https://xyz'...>
My code:
var right = document.getElementById('https://xyz');
var parent = right.parentNode;
parent.removeChild(right);
The problem is when I reference the name of the id, it comes back as null. I tried document.getElementById('https://xyz').href, yet still null. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

You probably want to use document.querySelector:
var right = document.querySelector('[href="https://xyz"]');
or if you need the n-th match, document.querySelectorAll:
var right = document.querySelectorAll('[href="https://xyz"]')[n];

getElementById as the name suggests, selects an element by id so you have to define an id on your element: id="some_id" and then in JavaScript document.getElementById('some_id')

That's because you did not assign any ID to that tag. So document.getElementById('https://xyz') won't give you anything because there is no tag with this ID.
You have to assign an ID like this:
<...id="ID_of_href" href="https://xyz'...>
Then you can get it with:
document.getElementById('ID_of_href')

First of all we got to understand what is the html id attribute.
Definition and Usage
The id attribute specifies a unique id for an HTML element (the value
must be unique within the HTML document).
The id attribute is most used to point to a style in a style sheet,
and by JavaScript (via the HTML DOM) to manipulate the element with
the specific id.
According to this link: https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_id.asp.
W3schools is a great web site for you to learn web development.
How to achieve your purpose:
const barElement = document.getElementById('bar');//Getting the element which id is bar.
console.log(barElement);
const fooElement = barElement.parentNode;//Getting bars parent.
console.log(fooElement);
<div id="foo">
<a id="bar" href="#"></a>
</div>

How add ID to HTML href with javascript

I have an HTML like this
<div class="this">
EXP
</div>
I want to add id to <a>. But do not know what to do.

First select your element using something like .getElementsByClassName(). Keep in mind that .getElementsByClassName() returns a NodeList collection of elements, so you'll want to access the first index (or loop over them). You can then simply set the ID with .id, as the ID is merely a property of an element.
This can be seen in the following:
const element = document.getElementsByClassName('this')[0];
element.id = 'element';
console.log(element);
<div class="this">
EXP
</div>

If you want to add this with Javascript, you'll need to use a selector to target your <a> tag and then set the id attribute on it. You can do this by using the querySelector() function or as seen below:
// Find an <a> tag that occurs below a class called "this" and set its id attribute
document.querySelector('.this > a').id = "some-id";
There are many other available functions to handle this through native Javascript and other frameworks, so your milage may vary depending on what you are using.
Example
In this example, we have provided some CSS that should only apply to an element with an id of "test" and we'll run the necessary code to show that the id is being added to the element (as it will be red):
document.querySelector('.this > a').id = 'test';
#test { color: red; }
<div class="this">
EXP
</div>

Add the id attribute to the <a> tag. See the differences of the middle line:
<div class="this">
<a id="expid" href="exp.com">EXP</a>
</div>

Select all the elements within an element having an attribute set to a specific value

I have the followings defined :
var excludedFiltersPanel = $("#excludedFiltersPanel");
var includedfiltersPanel = $("#includedfiltersPanel");
where *Panel is just a div.
in excludedFiltersPanel there are some div's with attribute data-iscorefilter="true" e.g. :
<div id="filterPanel-LastName" class="filterPanel" data-iscorefilter="true">
<Some Stuff here!>
</div>
I am trying to get them and move them to includedfiltersPanel:
It seems neither of these is a correct syntax:
excludedFiltersPanel.('[data-iscorefilter="true"]')
excludedFiltersPanel.$('[data-iscorefilter="true"]')
1.What is the correct syntax?
2.How do I append them to includedfiltersPanel? (I know how to append a single item, but not sure what is the common good practice here, e.g. using for loop or some JQuery magic)

Since excludedFiltersPanel there are some div's with attribute data-iscorefilter="true"
Use .find()
Description: Get the descendants of each element in the current set of matched elements, filtered by a selector, jQuery object, or element.
It would look like :
excludedFiltersPanel.find('[data-iscorefilter="true"]')

jQuery: how to retrieve element by concatenated ID?

I am dynamically creating and generating their id's to be something like hidden1234.
In the below Javascript code, var hid is retrieved properly by document.getElementById. But the jQuery line below has a syntax error. How can I retrieve this element by Id using jQuery?
var hid = document.getElementById('hidden'+id);
var hidden = $("#'hidden'+id");

It's just a simple typo:
var hidden = $('#hidden'+id);
You want to select an element with the id 'hidden' + id. The according CSS / jQuery selector therefore looks like '#hidden' + id.

How to get attributes of container in jquery?

How can I get attributes values from an container using jquery ?
For example:
I have container div as:
<div id = "zone-2fPromotion-2f" class = "promotion">
here how can I get attribute id value using jquery and than how can I trim the value to get component information ?
update : how can i get attribute values ?
UPDATE: If I have multiple components on page with same div information than how would I know what attribute value is for which component ?
Thanks.

First, that seems to be a ridiculously long ID -- I'm sure it could be made much shorter while still retaining its uniqueness.
Anyway, on to the answer: First you need a way of accessing your "container" div. Typically, one might use a class or ID to get an element. For example, you could "select" this div with the following call to jQuery:
var container = jQuery('#zone-3a...'); // Fill in ... with really long ID
But, since you're asking how to retrieve the ID, I'm presuming that selecting it via the ID is not an option. You could also select it using the class, although it's not guarenteed to be the only element on the page with that class:
var container = jQuery('.promotion');
There are other ways to narrow down the search, such as:
jQuery('div.promotion');
jQuery('div.promotion:first');
Once you have a reference to your "container", you can retrieve the ID like so:
container.attr('id'); // => zone-3a...
// or:
container[0].id; // => zone-3a...

So assuming your div looks like this.
<div id="foo"/>
You could get the ID attribute by using the attr method.
$("div").attr("id);
That assumes that you only have one div on the page. Not really sure what component information you are looking to get?

You read node attributes with the attr() method.
var id = $( '.promotion' ).attr( 'id' );
In terms of parsing that ID for any other arbitrary information, I can't say since it looks like you're using some sort of proprietary format of which I have no knowledge.

loop thru and get all divs with the class promotion and get the id of each...
$('div.promotion').each(function(){
var attr = $(this).attr('id'); // or whatever attribute
});
or single
var myDivClass = $('zone-3a-2f-2f-2fPortal-2fPages-2fHome-2fZones-2fLeft-2f-7ccomponent-3a-2f-2f-2fSpm-2fComponents-2fPromotion-2f').attr('class');
or another single
var myDivID = $('.promotion').attr('id');
