How to get a DOM Element from a JQuery Selector

I know using normal javascript i can do

formitem.validity.valid

or

How do i use Jquery to call these functions?
Below im using a custom attribute selector to get my element but cant seem to use it like below…

$('[data-dependID=pobText]').validity.valid

or

$('[data-dependID=pobText]').formitem.checkValidity();

Simple but how do i do this?

Answer 1

You need to get DOM Node for that:

$('[data-dependID=pobText]').get(0).validity.valid;
$('[data-dependID=pobText]').get(0).formitem.checkValidity();
