[jQuery] Adding custom selectors via a plugin

[Felix Geisendörfer]

Hi folks, Is it possible to add custom selectors to jQuery via a plugin? I'd basically just need to rewrite the selector string before it get's handled by jQuery itself. The reason I ask is because I'm currently converting some OOPish code into jQuery plugins which is tons of fun and I'd like to use selectors like this: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $('#tasklist task:3')     .task('field', 'name', 'New task name')     .task('save'); -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- instead of -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $('#tasklist tr[td]:nth-child(3)')     .task('field', 'name', 'New Task name')     .task('save'); -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks a lot -- Felix -------------------------- My latest blog posts: My Business: http://www.fg-webdesign.de
