jQuery objects has a selector
property so you can do something like
myjQueryObj.selector
Question
to be honest I'm not sure how to technically ask about my current need, so I'll try show it using some pseudo code.
I'm building a jQuery plugin and I need to return 'targeted element's DOM' - something like this:
plugin usage:
$('div.targeted-dom-element').myPlugin();
and inside my plugin I want to return/reuse somewhere this 'div.targeted-dom-element' string (not object please!) - is there any jquery/js built-in function for such thing?
