Context vs. Selector specificy in jQuery
<p>There are times when one can specify the scope in which a particular element might be found either by using a hierarchical selector, ie:</p>

<pre><code>$('#someParent .someChildren')
</code></pre>

<p>...or by using context, ie:</p>

<pre><code>$('.someChildren', $('#someParent'))
</code></pre>

<p>I know there are times when one can't use the former, so obviously the latter is useful.  But in situations like the one I present, which is better and why?</p>
