Easier way to get a jQuery object from appended element

Why not just:

var el = $('<div class="selectors"></div>');$container.append(el);

Then you have access to 'el'.

jquery css-selectors append

This is my favourite way of doing it:

var $selectors = $('<div class="selectors"></div>').appendTo(container);

jquery css-selectors append

$selectors = $('<div/>').addClass('selectors').appendTo($container);
