Personally, I always use this form:
var tempList = $(...);
if (tempList.length) {
// perform actions on tempList or tempList[0]
}
I've always run into trouble assuming that actions on an empty set will be
ignored. (I agree that this should be fixed, but it's a decent workaround
for the time being.)
