The same selector give diffrent results at regular browser and selenium

In Firefox in the console I can type:

$("a:contains('tekst')")

and I see 

object { length: 1, ... }

When I do the same in firefox launched by behat with sellenium i obtain:

SyntaxError: An invalid or illegal string was specified

Is console in firefox under sellenium controle works different?

  • What versions of Firefox and Selenium Server are you using? There are some combinations known to produce errors.
