Hi there,

I am troubled by the behavior of the :contains filter

I have an a tag

<a class="undo" href="/tag/poesie/5">undo</a>

I can select it with

$("a.undo") and play with the chain not problem e.g. $
("a.undo").remove() works fine

if I use

$(':contains(<a href="/tag/sagesse/4" class="undo">undo</a>)')
or
$('a:contains(<a href="/tag/sagesse/4" class="undo">undo</a>)')
or
$('a.undo:contains(<a href="/tag/sagesse/4" class="undo">undo</a>)')

I get the "same" result "pointing" to the same tag but I can't play
with it i.e. whatever I do to it doens't have an impact on the DOM.

I am sure it is something I don't understand about JS or jQuery ...
could somebody enlighten me?

Thanks
