How to select an element inside "this" in jQuery?

I use this to get the Parent, similarly for child

$( this ).children( 'li.target' ).css("border", "3px double red");

Good Luck

$( this ).find( 'li.target' ).css("border", "3px double red");

or

$( this ).children( 'li.target' ).css("border", "3px double red");

Use children for immediate descendants, or find for deeper elements.
