jquery - Find element at HTML string

Let's suppose I have

var testHTML = "<div id='demo_div'></div>";

I want to get above div as JQuery object to manipulate with it. I try to find it with:

 var found = $(testHTML).find("#demo_div");

and with:

 var found = $(testHTML).find("div");

Both without luck. I have empty found variable. What am I do wrong?

P.S. Yes I know I can have direct access to my div with

$("#demo_div") 

but I can't do it in my case - I need to get it from plain HTML that will be assigned to some variable just like in my example with testHTML var.

UPDATE: Even if I have not root div element like here:

var testHTML = "<html><div id='demo_div'></div></html>";

I can't use find for navigating div element.

The problem is that your div is the root element in the collection, so you need to use .filter() instead of .find() (which only looks at descendant elements):

var found = $(testHTML).filter("#demo_div");

I'm assuming your actual HTML string is more complex than the one in the question, otherwise you don't need to do anything other than $(testHTML) and you will have a jQuery object containing that single element.
