How do I get a jQuery selector's expression as text?

Question

I have a jQuery selector, which has a chained function.

Inside the function I want to get access to the TEXT representing the expression for the selector.

Answer 1

I couldn't figure out how to get the reference to the string value of the selector provided to inside $('value_i_want_here') when bound to a function; seems like a tough problem. However, if you prefer testing in IE[x] there's always Firebug Lite which works really well utilizing console.log(var|val).
