I should get an "alert" in the following case, but I am not getting any "alert". I am trying a simple example of jQuery.Contains().
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
var alpha = $.contains('body','p') {
alert(alpha);
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>
</body>
</html>

As per the jQuery documentation the API takes only element nodes (not JavaScript/jQuery objects or selectors)
Check to see if a DOM element is a descendant of another DOM element.
Only element nodes are supported; if the second argument is a text or comment node, $.contains() will return false.
Note: The first argument must be a DOM element, not a jQuery object or plain JavaScript object.
you should change the code to
$(function () {
alert($.contains(document.body, $("p")[0])) //alerts true
alert($.contains(document.body, document.getElementsByTagName("p")[0])); //alerts true
})
