I'm trying to get element with jquery and Selenium IDe 1.0.8.

<td>storeValue</td>
<td>$('#result').find('img').filter('[alt=&quot;NameOfPhoto&quot;]').eq(0)</td>
<td></td>

And in log I get

[error] Element $('#result').find('img').filter('[alt="NameOfPhoto"]').eq(0) not found

When I put this command in firebug I get this element :/

Why it doesn't work ?

EDIT: Alternatively for example you can give me code how to get id of first object whith JAVA tag at main page of stackoverflow.

TAG:

<a rel="tag" title="show questions tagged 'java'" class="post-tag" href="/questions/tagged/java">java</a>

and the example result from :

<div id="question-summary-4303985" class="question-summary narrow">

is:

question-summary-4303985

Based on the other posts I tried the following and it worked.

Add the code below to user-extensions.js:

function jQuery (selector)
{
    return selenium.browserbot.getUserWindow().jQuery(selector);
}

You can then access any jQuery function by using the keyword jQuery instead of the $. Just make sure that the page you are testing is referencing the jQuery js file.
