How do you convert a jQuery DOM element to a string you can use in a jQuery selector?

in Using jQuery • 7 years ago

Let's say you have this code:

var element = $('.gaiaElement').closest('#brand_container');

How can you use element to improve the following selector:

$('.main-content');

var element = $('.gaiaElement').closest('#brand_container');

does not make a lot of sense. An id has to be unique, so it means …

You have invalid HTML
Your element is either #brand_container or an empty jQuery.

You could use

element.find('.main-content')

But without seeing your HTML, I don’t know what you really want.
