This may be easier if you forget about jQuery for a moment and just think
about JavaScript.
Note that the argument you're passing to $() is a string.
What if you used alert() instead? Now how would you do it?
function my_function(panel_id) {
alert( '#--- .container' );
}
You want to somehow make a string to pass into the alert() function that has
three strings concatenated together:
'#'
panel_id
' .container'
How would you concatenate those three strings in JavaScript code, so that
the alert() would display the desired result?
