Description

I have a div with id="my.div". I am selecting it as

$('my\\\\.div'

) and it is working for me.

When I try to find children of the div with .find('tagName'), it doesn't find anything.

var parent = $('#my\\\\.div');
  
    console.log( "parent " + parent.length + '\\n' +
          ".find('option') " + parent.find('div').length + '\\n' +
          ".children('option') " + parent.children('div').length + '\\n');

This will output:

parent 1 
.find('option') 0 
.children('option') 1

You can see example here http://jsbin.com/ukepa3/12

NB: in 1.4.2 it works as expected

There wasn't a 1.4.5 release, was actually 1.5.
