jQuery: Can I do $('.superset').$('.within') instead of $('.within', $('.superset'))?

Question

Can jQuery be extended so that I can use the above syntax?

I can't figure out how to prototype whatever it is $() returns, so that I can call $().$()

Thanks.

Answer 1

you can use find()

eg: $('.superset').find('.within');

or much simpler, $('.superset .within');
