Select an element if the href value is a specific word

Hi and thanks in advance for your help!
I have previously used JS to add an active class to an element if the corresponding URL shows.
I am trying to take what I have done in the past and edit it.
I am trying to add an active class to an element if the href attribute equals '#tab1' for example. Rather than if the URL matches.
Please see the existing JS below that I am trying to work from, I have tried a few things including a getelementbyID rather than selecting the href but I'm lost.
$(document).ready(function () {
const $links = $('.hs-mega-menu ul li a');
$.each($links, function (index, link) {
if (link.href == (document.URL)) {
$(this).addClass('active');
}
});
});
An example of one of the nav-links I am trying to select and apply the active class too are below:
<li class="nav-item"> <a class="nav-link g-py-10--md g-px-15--md" href="#tab1" role="tab" data-toggle="tab">Printed Stationery<i class="g-ml-10 fa-solid fa-caret-down d-sm-none"></i></a> </li>

There are a few ways to do this, you can use a function like you have or you can filter or just use a selector for the attribute. Here are examples of the latter two.
$(function() {
let testurl = "#tab1";
const $links = $('.hs-mega-menu ul li a');
$links.filter(function(index, link) {
return $(this).attr('href') == testurl;
}).addClass("active");
$links.filter("[href='" + testurl + "']").addClass("active-test")
});
.active {
color: green;
}
.active-test {
background-color: #ffddff;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="hs-mega-menu">
<ul>
<li class="nav-item"> <a class="nav-link g-py-10--md g-px-15--md" href="#tab1" role="tab" data-toggle="tab">Printed Stationery<i class="g-ml-10 fa-solid fa-caret-down d-sm-none"></i></a> </li>
<li class="nav-item"> <a class="nav-link g-py-10--md g-px-15--md" href="#tab1" role="tab" data-toggle="tab">Printed Stationery<i class="g-ml-10 fa-solid fa-caret-down d-sm-none"></i></a> </li>
<li class="nav-item"> <a class="nav-link g-py-10--md g-px-15--md" href="#tab2" role="tab" data-toggle="tab">Printed Stationery<i class="g-ml-10 fa-solid fa-caret-down d-sm-none"></i></a> </li>
</ul>
</div>

Laravel: Click event on tab pane

I have tables called: 1) purchase_requisitions; 2) liquidations. Assuming that I have 100 data for both purchase requisitions and liquidations.
In our application, we have all the lists of users and when the client clicked a certain user, there will be a modal that will pop-up.
In this modal you can see all the records for that user and also there's 2 tab. 1) Purchase Requisition tab; 2) Liquidations tab.
Purchase Requisition is the active tab once the client clicked the certain user and this is where I'm fetching the data of purchase requisitions.
Now what I want is, I dont want to load the 100 data of purchase requisitions and liquidations at the same time.
I want to load the liquidations, for example when I clicked the liquidations tab.
Question: Why does my click event is not working?
Tab pane
<ul class="nav nav-pills">
<li class="nav-item" style="width: 10%">
<a class="nav-link active" data-toggle="pill" href="#purchases-payments-tab">Purchases/Payments</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item" style="width: 10%">
<a class="nav-link" data-toggle="pill" href="#liquidations-tab">Liquidations</a>
</li>
Javascript
<script type="text/javascript">
function getPurchasesPayments(vendor_id,start_date,end_date){
// .... code
}
$(document).ready(function(){
var vendor_id = "<?= $vendor->id; ?>";
var start_date = "<?= $start_date;?>";
var end_date = "<?= $end_date;?>";
if ($('.purchases-payments').length > 0) {
$('div').click('.purchases-payments',function(e){
// $('.purchases-payments').click(function(e){
$('.purchases-payments-details').html('');
getPurchasesPayments(vendor_id,start_date,end_date);
e.preventDefault();
return false;
})
}
if ($('.liquidations').length > 0) {
$('div').click('.liquidations',function(e){
// $('.liquidations').click(function(e){
alert('test');
e.preventDefault();
return false;
})
}
// if ($('.liquidations').hasClass('active')) {
// alert('liquidations active');
// }
})

You're targeting "div" in your jQuery click code, but you want to target your a elements, you should also add classes or ids to this elements which you will be targeting.
Add ids to your a elements
<ul class="nav nav-pills">
<li class="nav-item" style="width: 10%">
<a id="purchases" class="nav-link active" data-toggle="pill" href="#purchases-payments-tab">Purchases/Payments</a>
</li>
<li id="liquidations" class="nav-item" style="width: 10%">
<a class="nav-link" data-toggle="pill" href="#liquidations-tab">Liquidations</a>
</li>
</ul>
and in your javascript:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#purchases').click(function(e){
// your code
});
$('#liquidations').click(function(e){
// your code
});
})

Call Javascript function on click of dynamic tab

I am new to MVC and I have not written a lot of jQuery/JavaScript. I am trying to call a JavaScript function on click of a nav-tab. The nav-tabs are added to the page dynamically. I know the "name" of the specific tab which I need to call the function when clicked, but for the life of me, I cannot figure out where or how to add it. Below is the code that dynamically adds the tabs to the page:
<ul class="nav nav-tabs nav-tabs-line" role="tablist">
#{
for (var i = 0; i < Model.Tabs.Tabs.Count(); i++)
{
var n = Model.Tabs.Tabs[i];
<li class="nav-item" style="#(n.isHidden == true ? "display:none;" : "")">
<a class="nav-link #(activeAdded == false && n.isHidden == false ? "active" : "")" data-toggle="tab" href="##n.href" role="tab" aria-selected="true" id="#n.aId" style="#(n.isHidden == true ? "display:none;" : "")">
#n.name
</a>
</li>
if (activeAdded == false && n.isHidden == false)
{
activeAdded = true;
tabstr += "$('#" + #n.href + "').addClass('active');$('#" + #n.aId + "').click();";
}
if (n.isHidden == true)
{
tabstr += "$('#" + #n.href + "').css('display','none');";
}
}
}
</ul>
I need to call the function loadRequests() when the tab named "Support" is clicked. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

You can use event delegation on the parent <ul>.
$('ul.nav').on('click', '.nav-item:contains("Support")', function(e){
loadRequests();
//do something else
});
$('ul.nav').on('click', '.nav-item:contains("Support")', function(e) {
console.log('clicked');
//do something else
});
$('button').click(function(e) {
$('ul.nav').append(`<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" data-toggle="tab" href="##n.href" role="tab" aria-selected="true" id="#n.aId">
${Math.random() < 0.5 ? 'something else' : 'Support'}
</a>
</li>`);
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<ul class="nav nav-tabs nav-tabs-line" role="tablist">
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" data-toggle="tab" href="##n.href" role="tab" aria-selected="true" id="#n.aId">
Support
</a>
</li>
</ul>
<button>Add Tab</button>

How to manage more effectively html button click events?

It looks ridiculous to do so many tasks on a button click while every button should have its own events:
function allStories() {
$('#zero-md').hide();
$('.container-aboutme').hide();
$('.container-allstories').show();
$('.container-allstories').load("pages/allstories.html");
$("#home").removeClass("nav-link active").addClass("nav-link");
$("#aboutme").removeClass("nav-link active").addClass("nav-link");
$("#allposts").removeClass("nav-link").addClass("nav-link active");
}
function aboutMe() {
$('#zero-md').hide();
$('.container-allstories').hide();
$('.container-aboutme').show();
$('.container-aboutme').load("pages/about.html");
$("#home").removeClass("nav-link active").addClass("nav-link");
$("#allposts").removeClass("nav-link active").addClass("nav-link");
$("#aboutme").removeClass("nav-link").addClass("nav-link active");
}
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" id="allposts" onclick="allStories()" href="#">All posts</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" id="aboutme" onclick="aboutMe()" href="#">About me</a>
</li>
Is there is a better, more effective way to organize such events with less code?

You mean this
$("#nav").on("click",".nav-link",function(e) {
e.preventDefault(); // stop the link
const id = this.id;
const $thisContainer = $('.container'+id);
$('#zero-md').hide();
$('.container').hide(); // hide all containers
$thisContainer.load("pages/"+id+".html",function() { // perhaps not load if already loaded
$thisContainer.fadeIn("slow");
}) ;
$(".nav-link").removeClass("active")
$(this).addClass("active")
})
<ul id="nav">
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" id="allposts" href="#">All posts</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" id="about" href="#">About me</a>
</li>
</ul>

Yes. Try to keep your code DRY (don't repeat yourself.)
Add an event listener in your JS.
Use e.target to determine what was clicked.
Chain your commands together when they're operating on the same elements.
Don't remove a class and then add the same class back. Just remove the one you want to get rid of.
I've added some stand in elements since not everything was present in your HTML.
$('.nav-link').click( (e)=>{
let theLink = $(e.target).attr('id');
const container = '.container-'+$(theLink).attr('id');
$('#zero-md').hide();
$('.container').hide();
$(container).show().load("pages/"+theLink+".html");
alert('loading: pages/'+theLink+'.html');
$("#home").removeClass("nav-link active").addClass("nav-link");
$(".nav-link").removeClass("active");
$("#"+theLink).addClass("active");
});
.active {
font-size: 1.5rem;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" id="allstories" href="#">All posts</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" id="aboutme" href="#">About me</a>
</li>
<div class="container container-allstories">All Stories</div>
<div class="container container-aboutme">About Me</div>
<div id="zero-md">Zero MD</div>

jQuery adding active class to navbar doesnt work

So instead of adding an active class to the navbar using HTML I instead wanted to add it through jQuery but my code doesn't seem to work.
$('.navbar-nav li a[href="' + location.pathname + '"]').addClass('active');
<nav>
<ul class="navbar-nav">
<li class="nav-item" >
<a class="nav-link active" href="">Home</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="">Wat is het?</a>
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
Can anybody help me out?

I think what do you need is window.location.href.
Something like this:
var pathname = window.location.href;
$('.navbar-nav li a').attr('href',pathname).addClass('active');
Check this example: https://jsfiddle.net/tbx56gtL/7/

Maybe you can do it like this:
$(function() {
var currentLoc = window.location.href;
if(/PageYouWant/.test(currentLoc) {
$('.navbar-nav li a').addClass('active');
}
});

If you want to set active in anchor tag you can do one of the following options.
Asign ids to every a tag
Asign a data attrib and add a class toggleClassX
Use $(this).addClass("active")
The following are the examples of each recomendation :
1 html:
<nav>
<ul class="navbar-nav">
<li class="nav-item" >
<a class="nav-link active" id="myId1" href="">Home</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" id="myId2" href="">Wat is het?</a>
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
2 html:
<nav>
<ul class="navbar-nav">
<li class="nav-item" >
<a class="nav-link toggleClass1 active" data-tclass="1" href="">Home</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link toggleClass2" data-tclass="2" href="">Wat is het?</a>
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
3 html: your structure is ok for the last example
1 js:
$("element").click(function(){
$("#myId1").addClass("active")
});
2 js:
$(".nav-link").click(function(){
var tclass = $(this).data("tclass)
$(".toggleClass"+tclass).addClass("active")
});
3 js:
$(".nav-link").click(function(){
$(this).addClass("active")
});
Hope the above answer your question.
