Answer 1

If your html looks like this for example:

​<div id="container">
  <span id="span1"></span>
  <span id="span2"></span>
</div>​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Your script:

var secondChild = $('div#container > *:eq(1)');

​ Where on eq(n): n is the zero-based index of the child you want to get. In this case, 1 points to the second child of <div>.

Answer 2

$('head style').eq(1).text()

This should do the thing !

Answer 3

... i do not know if this is possible. You cannot select any non-body elements using CSS, so i'm guessing you cannot either using jQuery.

What do you want to do exactly?
