Answer 1

You can reference the DOM element with .get(0) or [0], eg $('#foo')[0] assuming there is just one.

Answer 2

$('#a')[0]

// oops my answer is too short

Answer 3

That is what get() method was made for by JQuery team, consider:

var elem = $('#a')[0];

Or

var elem = $('#a').get(0);

document.getElementById(elem)..........
