Getting elements by a partial id string in javascript

javascript

Solution

This is pretty basic stuff.

var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName("input");
for (var i = 0; i < inputs.length; i++) {
  if(inputs[i].id.indexOf("bib") == 0)
    inputs[i].disabled = bDisabled;
}

Problem

I have the followng code: ``` var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName("input"); for (var i = 0; i < inputs.length; i++) { inputs[i].disabled = bDisabled; } ``` I need to now add some logic to only disable the the inputs that have and Id of the form "bib*" where bib can be any character. Ive seen other questions where this is done with jquery but I cant use jquery just simple javascript. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
