Hi RG,
Try $('ul li:first-child') instead. that should do it.

I have a feeling this is easy, but I can't seem to wrap my head around
it. I want to match the first item of multiple lists. For example
below, I would like a set with the "foo 1" and "bar 1" items . Can I
get this using one match? My tries keep coming back to something
like $('ul li:first'), but that only matches "foo 1" of course.
Thanks for any help!
<ul>
<li>foo 1</li>
<li>foo 2</li>
<li>foo 3</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>bar 1</li>
<li>bar 2</li>
<li>bar 3</li>
</ul>
