Answer 1

$("html > div")[0].find("div")[1]

XPath is not available in Jquery anymore.

If you need Xpath, just use Firebug under FF, or Chrome.

$("option:selected")

To get a div being hover :

$("div:hover")

$("checkbox:selected")

$("#select2 > option:selected")

or

$('.again >select')[0].find("option:selected")

('.secondDIv').hover(function(){
},function(){});
