jQuery indexOf function?
<p>I'm trying to get a location of an element in a jQuery set.</p>

<p><strong><a href="http://jsfiddle.net/xz9dW/" rel="nofollow">Here's what I tried so far.</a></strong></p>

<p>I want to be able to do something like this:</p>

<pre><code>$('ul').find('a').indexOf('.active');
</code></pre>

<p>And get the location of the <code>.active</code> in the set of <code>a</code>'s.</p>

<p>Is there something like an <code>indexOf()</code> function for jQuery? The <code>index()</code> method doesn't work</p>
