So this works fine, as you all know

$("#foo").html = "bar";

But how would I do this?

var i = "foo";
$(i).html= "bar";

I’ve tried $("#"+i) as well, but that doesn’t work either.

    This does not work.

    $("#foo").html = "bar"; //Overwrites the object's html function with a string
    

    This should.

    $("#"+i).html("bar"); //Sets the inner HTML of the selected element.
