Question

I’m trying to manipulate a jQuery object to make the first item the last, second the first, third the second, and so on.

With an Array this would be simple:

myArray = [ "a", "b", "c", "d", "e" ];
myArray.add( myArray.shift() );
// done.

How can I do this with a jQuery object?

myObject = $('.myDiv').children();
myObject.nowWhat(?)

Thanks for any help.

The following should do it:
UPDATES:

arr = $('.myDiv').children().get();
myObject = $(arr);  //wrapped it again to a jquery object
myObject.add( arr.shift() );
myObject.someJQueryEventFunc();

get() returns an array of all the matched elements.

get(index) returns a single element of the matched elements
