change text on radio button with jquerymobile jqm

[makata]

The following line does not work.

$("label[for=pick] .ui-btn-text").html("new label");

How to correct this?

The element does not have a class name of 'ui-btn-text' also having space between "label[for=pick]" and "ui-btn-text" means it will try to target a child element, i think the main problem is it wouldn't be able to see the class anyway, as it does not exist when triggered

 

$("label[for=pick]").html("new text");

 

should work fine, as the selector is seen in both cases.
