[jQuery] Trouble constructing selector string.

[jQuery] Trouble constructing selector string.


            var t = 'input.ffControl[value="Add a Value"]:first';
            var s = 'input.ffControl[value="Add a '+$(this).attr('class')
+'"]:first';
            if(s == t) { alert(s); }
            $(t,this).val('gotcha');
Hi there, Can anyone help me understand why changing the fourth line
of the above snippet to
            $(s, this).val('gotcha')
does not have the effect that the orignal line has when the alert on
line 3 always shows?
Many thanks in advance for any effort, I appreciate it,
