jQuery selector problem

jQuery selector problem

Hi,

I have a problem selecting an image element by its id. I have a number of image elements inside a div. I can easily select all the image elements in the div using the id of the div and the img element tag name:

  1. jQuery("#divID img");

this returns all the img elements in the div.

The img elements have their own id. The id's follow a certain convention. The problem I have is selecting an individual img element.

Example:

  1. jQuery("#1/1-3");

this does not select the element. Is there a reason why? am I missing something?

Thanks in advance
