Question

Is there a more elegant way to select all the first tier <dt>s than what I am showing. I was thinking something like $('#myDiv').children('dl>dt') but it doesn’t work. Thanks

$('#myDiv dl').children('dt');
$('#myDiv').children('dl').children('dt');


    <div id="myDiv">
        <dl>
            <dt>good</dt>
            <dd>good
            <dl><dt>Bad</dt><dd>Bad</dd></dl>
            </dd>
            <dt>good</dt><dd>good</dd>
        </dl>
    </div>

Answer 1

$('#myDiv>dl>dt')

That is black magic!
