Those are alternate methods to get a jQuery reference to the same
element. But it's still not a DOM reference. For that you'd need the
[0] that Karl indicated. The .get(0) method might be suitable here as
well, but I'm not clear right now if that returns a DOM object or a
jQuery object - I *think* it's a DOM object, but it's been a while since
I've used it....

Subject: [jQuery] Standard DOM returned from jQuery selector
I have a feeling I'm just missing something in the documentation, but is
there anyway to get a standard DOM object to return from a jquery
selector?
<div id="context">
<div class="target"></div>
</div>
Essentially I want a way for $('.target', '#context') to give me the
equivalent of
document.getElementById('context').getElementsByTagName('div')[0]
