hi,

does the "find" method work in jQuery with classes selectors ?

For example:

var tagsDiv = $(".node-form .taxonomy-super-select-checkboxes").find("div.fieldset-wrapper");

doesn't work. But

var tagsDiv = $(".node-form .taxonomy-super-select-checkboxes").find("div#edit-taxonomy-tags-1-wrapper");

works. This is the html code:

...

<fieldset class=" collapsible">
   <legend class="collapse-processed">
       <a href="#">Tags
          <span class="form-required" title="This field is required.">*</span>
       </a>
  </legend>
  <div class="fieldset-wrapper">
     <div class="form-item" id="edit-taxonomy-tags-1-wrapper">
        <label for="edit-taxonomy-tags-1">Enter New Tags: </label>
     </div>
  </div>
</fieldset>

...

thanks
