improve inefficient jQuery selector

Question

In IntelliJ, if I use a jQuery selector such as:

$(\'#roleField option\').each(function() {
    // impl omitted
});

The selector is highlighted

Answer 1

Try to use .find() here:

$('#roleField').find('option').each(function() {
    // impl omitted
});

Your warning seem like related to efficiency of the selector.
