Convert jquery element to html element
Solution 1:
Try myJQueryElement.get(0) or myJQueryElement[0]. (get() is most useful when you need negative indices, for example, as described in the documentation for get().)
Solution 2:
$("#foo")[0] will get you an HTML element. Using brackets is a tiny bit faster than using .get() but not something you'll likely notice unless you are doing it millions of times.
