Question

I would like to apply doSomething() to every link of the first paragraph, using jQuery. This is what I have tried:

var firstParagraph = $("p").eq(0);
firstParagraph.$("a").doSomething();

What’s the correct format? (P.S. Where can I learn about such selectors in more depth?)

Answer 1

You can also do:

var anchors = $('p:first a');

And there’s more on selectors here:
