I owe you an apology, Hector - I'd been looking at the same lines for so long, I'd stopped seeing what I'd written ... and was doubling-up my selector. This DOES work: $( '#themenu' ).children( 'li[id]' ).hover( function() { var theID = $(this).attr('id');

You don't want ":has" you want a normal attribute selector. $( '#themenu' ).children( 'li[id]' ) Karl Rudd On Fri, Nov 7, 2008 at 11:14 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I have read the other threads on this topic, but am still getting > nowhere ... > > I'm trying to make a s
