Hi,
if you can use jq('a...@id="myLink"]') then certainly you can use
jq('a#myLink')
But to answer your question about the syntax error, it's because the
XPath syntax you're using for the attribute selector was deprecated a
long time ago and finally removed from jQuery in version 1.3. Use the
CSS syntax instead:
jq('a[id=myLink]')
In other words, remove the "@". Also, the quotes around myLink are
optional, so I removed them.
Again, though, you'll be in better shape if you use jq('a#myLink'), or
better yet, jq('#myLink')
