I have very simple question (ie probably simple for everyone with jQuery experience, but not for me).

Lets say I have the following list

1. <div>
2. <li id="first"><a>one</a></li>
3. <li><a>two</a></li>
4. <li><a>three</a></li>
5. <li><a>four</a><li>
6. </div>

Now, if I want to get all the list items after the first, and change the text within the anchor tags, if a certain condition is met (eg change to capitals if it starts with a "t"). How can I do that?

My approach was to get all the list items (after the first) with

1. var listitems = $('#first').nextAll();

and then loop through them to change them

1. for (var i = 0; i < listitems.length; i++) {
2.   var text = listitems[i].find('a').text();
3.   ....

But this line goes wrong. If I understand correctly listitems is a jQuery object, but then question is how do I access it?
