I would like to select a set of elements that are both of a certain input type (say, a checkbox) and have a certain class using jQuery. However, when I try the following:
$("input:checkbox .myClass")
I don't get any items returned. How can I accomplish this in jQuery?

Your selector is looking for any descendants of a checkbox element that have a class of
.myClass
.Try this instead:
Check it out in action.
I also tested this:
And it will also work properly. In my humble opinion this syntax really looks rather ugly, as most of the time I expect
:
style selectors to come last. As I said, though, either one will work.
