What do you mean "jQuery array"? Everytime you call $/jQuery you create a new object, there is no global jQuery object containing elements. When you remove an element, it is detached from the DOM and saved in a specific object. var myElement = $('#myEl').remove(); // #myEl is now in the myElement object, detached from any document // you can append it to another window's document $(window2.document.body).append( myElement ); (not sure the appending will work, there are issues when dealing with HTMLElements across frames you have to take into account, but that's the logic) > > 2) If I have to generate a list of unique "id"-s which contains > several hundred rows then the jQuery "array" is just growing, growing, > growing ad infinitum? Why would you do that? And what do you mean by "the jQuery array" again? No, an object will grow as large as the number of elements you put in it.
