Anyone have any input on this? Surely someone has written a tute on these semi-confusing methods.
---------------------------------------------------------------------- I've seen some of you jQuery masters bust out with these amazing chains, but I can't quite grasp how some of them are crafted. I've looked through the methods and found a few that I think should work in a specific instance, but then they don't. So what I'm wondering is if anyone has already taken some time and writen up a quick tutorial on thefiltering/limiting methods biult into jQuery. I'm specifically looking for help on these: not() filter() is() A perfect example is a situation I had earlier today. I have a series of tags, some of which contain real values, the others containing an . I thought I could just use not() and remove the items which did not have an like so: $('label').html().not(' '); But that didn't work. So I'm wanting to learn HOW I can do this sort of thing and a tutorial on these methods would help immensely.
