How to use 'children' jQuery selector to only show content of a child span of a div?
<p>I have the html like this"</p>

<pre><code>&lt;div id="words" style="opacity: 1; visibility:hidden;"&gt;
    &lt;div id="row1" style="top: 1px;"&gt;
        &lt;span wordnr="0" class="highlight"&gt;took&lt;/span&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>I want to get the <strong>took</strong> 
so how can i use the children jquery  for this ?</p>

<p>I have tried:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;script&gt;
   var a=$("#words").children('#row1').children('.highlight');
   alert( a );
&lt;/script&gt;
</code></pre>
