Modifying a jQuery object
<p>I have an <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> element. I then have an associated jQuery object <code>$("a")</code> which I would like to modify. So I try the following:</p>

<pre><code>$("a").myAttribute = 10;
alert($("a").myAttribute);    // &lt;--- Alerts undefined
</code></pre>

<p>What is the problem?</p>
