Jquery selector for "has attribute and parent isn't selected"

Is there a jquery selector that says something like, "has attribute=x and parent hasn't been selected yet"? In the code below, node 1-1开发者_如何学编程 gets added twice to the lower div, but I only want it to be added as part of node 1.

You can try out something like:

var result = $('div[mod_date="1"]');

result.filter(function (i) {
  if(result.has(this.parentNode))
     return false;
  else
    return true;
});

try in this way...

var html = $('div[mod_date="1"]').parent().html()

$('.selection').append(html);

See here

Not directly a selector you described but matching only the first level, you could do:

$('.main > div[mod_date="1"]').clone().appendTo($('.selection'))

If I understand correctly this should do the job: http://jsfiddle.net/ZrjkD/
