findChildren (opposite of closest)

Description

I had to use a function which looks up an element matched by an expression inside a targetElement.

So something like the opposite of closest().

Because i did not find a function for that in the jQuery-Framework i wrote some snippet my self:

jquerySorter = {

findChildren: function(start, match){

if(!$(start).children(match)[0]){

return jquerySorter.findChildren($(start).children('*'), match);

} else {

return $(start).children(match);

}

}

}

This is a Part of the complete SortingPlugin i wrote.

I hope this helps to implement a function which is like the opposite of closest, because i think lots of poeple need this.

regards

Mark Paspirgilis

This doesn't seem common enough to put into core, but can easily be done inline or via a plugin.
