Remove "#comments" from dynamically loaded URLs?

I've got a problem where all the dynamic links on my homepage have "#comments" at the end, making it so when the user clicks their screen is annoyingly jolted down to the 'Comments' section each time rather than staying on top.
Example URL:
https://example.com/441447279/amazing-art/#comments
Is there a way to dynamically strip them of the 'comments' part via jQUery?
They're always the SECOND link in a unique class <p class="g1-meta entry-meta entry-byline entry-byline-s entry-byline-with-avatar">
so I was thinking something like
var linkURL = $(".g1-meta.entry-meta.entry-byline.entry-byline-s.entry-byline-with-avatar").find("a").prop('href');
but I don't know how to make it retrieve the SECOND link instead of the 1st.
And I don't know where to go from there... Help appreciated.

Use this
//The key here is to use nth-of-type selector
$(".g1-meta.entry-meta.entry-byline.entry-byline-s.entry-byline-with-avatar").find("a:nth-of-type(2)").each(function(){
let link = $(this).prop('href').replace('#comments','');
$(this).prop('href',link)
})
Or without jQuery
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.g1-meta.entry-meta.entry-byline.entry-byline-with-avatar')).forEach(function(node){
let anchorNode = node.querySelectorAll('a')[1];
anchorNode.href= anchorNode.href.replace('#comments','');
})

How to check if link is present on a page with Jquery?

I have this link on my web page:
Terms and conditions
I want to use Jquery to check whether this specific link is present or not on the web page. I know how to check if text is present on a page, but am struggling a little with links. If it helps, it is only the terms-conditions-mywebsite bit that I need to use (as mywebsite changes depending on who is using the site).
The class is footer so I have tried $('.footer:contains("terms-conditions") but this doesn't seem to work. Any pointers would be appreciated, thanks so much :)
Edit: I need to check that the actual specific contents of this links is present, rather than the text 'Terms and conditions'

You should check the value of href attribute. You can use Attribute Contains Selector [name*=”value”] which select elements that have the specified attribute with a value containing a given substring:
The following should work:
if($('a[href*=terms-conditions]').length){
//exist
}
OR: Check the link string directly
if($('a:contains("Terms and conditions")').length){
//exist
}

I would look at doing this with Javascript, as it's very straightforward and means you are not reliant on JQuery should you wish to remove JQuery from the site at a later date.
// get <a> elements
var links = document.getElementsByTagName('a');
// loop through each <a>
for (var i = 0; i < links.length; i++) {
// get each href
var hrefs = links[i].getAttribute("href");
// check href against the one you want
if (hrefs == "https://www.google.com") {
// check content of link
console.log('link content:', links[i].innerHTML)
}
}

Split website link into 2 href link?

On my website public: http://abv.mk/company.aspx?id=40056 , i want to split http://www.donholding.com.mk & http://www.webklinika.mk to be separate links (and separate clickable like two different links - hrefs).
But in my admin-panel for the field website i only have 1 field available, where i input 2 web site links splited with ","
So is it possible in the public asp-file "company.aspx", to edit the file and insert some Javascript code, so i split the link from 1 href to 2 hrefs ?
<span id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_lblComWeb"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.donholding.com.mk, www.webklinika.mk" title="">www.donholding.com.mk, www.webklinika.mk</a> | donholding#live.com</span>

I'm guessing you have one field in the DB which stores the URL. This should probably instead be its own table - company_url, which takes company_id (in thie case, 40056) and the URL. You should bring back a DataSet, and create a HTML string to put in to the Literal (or whatever you're using).
That's the "you should do this" answer.
Now.. you could do...
$(document).ready(function(){
var el = $('span[id$="lblComWeb"]');
var el_a = el.children('a');
links = el_a.html();
links = links.split(',');
el.html('');
$.each(links,function(l){
var e = ''+links[l]+'';
el.append((l > 0 ? ',' : '') + e);
});
});
as you're already using jQuery. However, it's cheap and dirty and nasty and yucky.
Just putting that snippet in to your company.aspx file (between some tags) should do the trick.

This page only allows you to display one website.
The href property of the a html tag only support reference to one address/page.
What you could do is put there the link to another page which is yours, and in this page you can put as many different links to anywhere you want and other information too. Maybe search for some URL shortener service which allows something like this.
Now, if you actually do have access to the source code and modify it, all you have to do is:
<span id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_lblComWeb">
<a target="_blank" href="http://www.donholding.com.mk" >www.donholding.com.mk</a>, <a target="_blank" href="www.webklinika.mk" >www.webklinika.mk</a> | donholding#live.com
</span>

Finding a URL in a element with jquery

I want to check if a textarea has a certain url with jquery
how can i go about doing this? Ive asked around and ive been told to use regEX, isn't there any way simpler?
And i mean part of a url
Lets say user posts http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jf5sbeEQQec
All im looking for is the www.youtube.com/watch?v= Part

Assuming you have jQuery loaded in, as you've tagged it:
var txt = $('textarea').text();
var link = 'http://www.stackoverflow.com/';
if(txt.indexOf(link) > -1) {
alert('Has link');
}
See jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/TheNix/6GHqa/

Use getElementById() on non-current HTML document

Essentially, I want to pull text within a div tag from a document on my server to place it in the current document. To explain the reason: I want to pull a headline from a "news article" to use it as the text for a link to that article.
For example, within the target HTML is the tag:
<div id='news-header'>Big Day in Wonderland</div>
So in my current document I want to use javascript to set the text within my anchor tags to that headline, i.e.:
<a href='index.php?link=to_page'>Big Day in Wonderland</a>
I'm having trouble figuring out how to access the non-current document in JS.
Thanks in advance for your help.
ADDED: Firefox style issue (see comment below).

I'm not sure where you're getting your HTML but, assuming you already have it in a string, you could create a document of your own, stuff your HTML into it, and then use the standard getElementById to pull out the piece you want. For example:
var doc = document.implementation.createDocument('http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml', 'html', null);
doc.documentElement.innerHTML = '<body><div>Nonsense</div><div id="news-header">Big Day in Wonderland</div><p>pancakes</p></body>';
var h = doc.getElementById('news-header');
// And now use `h` like any other DOM object.

Normally, I would try to solve an issue only with the tools specified by the user; but if you are using javascript, there really is no good reason not to just use jQuery.
<a id='mylink' href='url_of_new_article' linked_div='id_of_title'></a>
$(function() {
var a = $('#mylink');
a.load(a.attr('href') + ' #' + a.attr('linked_div'));
});
That little function up there can help you update all your link's text dynamically. If you have more than one, you can just put it in a $('a').each() loop and call it a day.
update to support multiple links on condition:
$(function() {
$('a[linked_div]').each(function() {
var a = $(this);
a.load(a.attr('href') + ' #' + a.attr('linked_div'));
});
});
The selector makes sure that only the links with the existence of the attribute 'linked_div' will be processed.

You need to pull the content of the remote document into the current DOM, as QuentinUK mentioned. I'd recommend something like jQuery's .load() method
