Question

I am new to Mootools and have been using jQuery for a while. What I am trying to do is convert some jQuery into mootools.

I have the following written in jQuery :

var title = $('a:eq(2)').attr('title');

how would you write the equivalent in mootools?

Answer 1

You could use the double dollar function, which returns an array of elements matching the element type you supply –

var title = $$('a')[2].title;
