title: JavaScript DOM object to jQuery object
body: <p>How can I convert a JavaScript DOM object to a jQuery object?</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;tr onclick="changeStatus(this)"&gt;
  
  function changeStatus(myObject) {
         XXX.removeClass();
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What should I write in place of XXX?
  I know I can make a workaround using an id and an id selector, but it is not so elegant. 
  Is there any way to convert a js DOM object to a jQuery object or using the <code>this</code> keyword in jQuery?</p>
