  <argument name="attribute" type="String">
    <desc>An attribute name.</desc>

  <desc>Selects elements that have the specified attribute with a value containing the a given substring.</desc>
  <longdesc><p>This is the most generous of the jQuery attribute selectors that match against a value. It will select an element if the selector's string appears anywhere within the element's attribute value. Compare this selector with the Attribute Contains Word selector (e.g. [attr~="word"]), which is more appropriate in many cases.</p></longdesc>
<example>
  <desc>Finds all inputs with a name attribute that contains 'man' and sets the value with some text.</desc>
  <code><![CDATA[$('input[name*="man"]').val('has man in it!');]]></code>
  <html><![CDATA[<input name="man-news" />

  <input name="milkman" />
  <input name="letterman2" />
  <input name="newmilk" />]]></html>
