working with objects in an array in javascript and jquery

Question

i have chosen some of div elements in HTML and save them in an array

var Div = $(".etc") ;

i want to use this notation to slide-toggle Div elements with this code ;

Div[0].slideToggle(...) ;

but it doesn't work and doesn't toggle the element . although i try to alert element's value or name and other attributes but it doesn't work.

The bracket notation returns DOM elements, which do not have a slideToggle method. What you want is .eq, which filters in the same manner but returns jQuery objects instead:

Div.eq(0).slideToggle(...) ;

Use eq():

Div.eq(0).slideToggle(...);

Try:

$(Div[0]).slideToggle(...) ;

Or:

Div.eq(0).slideToggle(...) ;

.eq()

it is better to use .eq() as you already have a jquery object
