$(".className").click(function(){
    var link =  $(this).find("a").attr('href');
    //output is '#myID'

    var findItems = $(link '.mydiv').length; 
    //WRONG
    var findItems = $(link + '.mydiv').length; 
    //WRONG

    console.log(findItems);
    // WRONG NUMBER

});

if someone could correct my syntax please? suppose to be like var findItems = $('#myID .mydiv').length; but #myID should be a variable
