On chrome, I can't select nodes inside a parent node if the parent node is not inserted on the document, and the selection is a "multi element selection".

Provided a test case with the minimum code to fail. The code creates a div with two divs inside. The inner divs have an id (but fails with class names too).

I can select the inner divs with "div.find('div')" but not with "div.find('#one, #two')".

Hope it helps.

Thanks.
