How to Change the ID of a div Using jQuery onClick

Changing the ID of a div element in your HTML dynamically can be useful for a variety of reasons, such as enabling unique identification for styling or JavaScript manipulation. With jQuery, this can be done very efficiently through the use of the onClick event handler.

Explanation

Document Ready: The $(document).ready function ensures that your jQuery code runs only after the HTML document has been fully loaded.

Button Click Event: The $("changeIdButton").click(function() { ... }); attaches a click event to the button with the id changeIdButton.

Change ID: The $("originalID").attr("id", "newID"); line changes the ID of the div from originalID to newID.

Putting It All Together
