I have the following html generated by a CMS for a tabbed element:

<li class="active" style="width: 233px;">
  <a href="#tabopen_tickets">Open Tickets</a>
</li>

I want to change the link's text of "Open Tickets" to other text, but I only know the link's href.

How can I do this with jQuery? Thanks!

You can use:

$('li.active a').text("new text here");
