It's called context. Using your example, if you wanted to select all items
with a class of .mol_row INSIDE the jQuery object mol_elements, you'd do
this:

$(".mol_row", mol_elements)

That selector says "look for .mol_row in the context of mol_elements.

Subject: [jQuery] how to select elements inside jQuery objects


i've tried to do the following on a grand scale the last few days, please
help


my suggestion to select a classname inside a object containing the xhtml

$(  mol_elements ".mol_row" ).append( "<td>"+ molname +"</td>");


I was then suggested the following, but that selects BOTH class and element,
right?

$( ".mol_row", mol_elements ).append( "<td>"+ molname +"</td>");

how to select the classname inside the object then?
