title: Jquery selector for <link> elements in <head>
body: <p>We use jQuery to parse some HTML. I then need to traverse that document and find some elements. Among the elements I need to find, there are the <code>&lt;link&gt;</code> elements.</p>
  
  <p>This works perfectly well to extract all the <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> elements:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$(string).find("a")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but this doesn't work to extract the <code>&lt;link&gt;</code> elements :</p>
  
  <pre><code>$(string).find("link")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The <code>string</code> parameter is the html content (e.g. received on a request).</p>
  
  <p>Any idea why? (I guess that the <code>find</code> only applies to the <code>&lt;body&gt;</code> elements). Also, any idea on how to actually extract these <code>&lt;link&gt;</code> elements?</p>
