Changing the background color without "class"

JavaScript
1

Can somene help me with this small code? please. http://jsfiddle.net/hbm4x36o/ The script changes the background color of the cells with the same content using “class” element. Instead I would like it to happen without using “class” element but depending on the content of the cells.

That was fun, considering my lack of experience :slight_smile: .

Thanks Ryan, apparently you are more experienced than me :slight_smile:

There is a small issue. http://jsfiddle.net/p8x7pp13/ When I click on 2 in the cell, it highlights the cells with number 222 as well.

Slightly modified.

A JS expert might want to step in and correct any mistakes I made that my noob-self has overlooked.

thanks again, it is perfect for me.

Maybe strip out leading and following spaces from the text as they will stop it matching?
