Answer: '#field1' asJQuery val Note: All Javascript methods in jQuery are available to you this way. Multi parameter functions are then mapped like: aQuery.sampleFunc (a,b,c); aQuery sampleFunc: a and: b and: c. The ``and:`` can be whatever. The only thing that matters is the first part of the keyword selector which has to match the function name.
