jQuery apply()
March 27, 2008 - 12:46pm — rimmer333
Sometimes deep inside a DOM traversing chain you need a reference to plain current jQuery object. My extremely simple plugin allows you in such cases to call apply() method, which accepts a function (anonymous preferrably) and executes it immidiately, passing a current jQuery selection (not some DOM Element, but the whole Array-like jQuery object with current selection right inside) as this. Method returns the very same selection, so you may continue your chain just like after any other non-traversing method.
