I have a class called formStyle which occurs several times in my webpage. Is it possible to select let's say first and third (with jquery) if they are five

You can use the eq selector to get a specific index

$('.formStyle:eq(0), .formStyle:eq(2)') // Will return the first and 3rd elements with the class formStyle

You would be much better off giving those elements unique IDs and referencing them by the ID directly. They can still share the same class.

You can use jQuery's :eq()-selector, but it is easier (and probably faster, due to native selectors) to select all of them and pick the ones you need afterwards:

var elements = $('.formStyle');
elements.eq(0) // first
elements.eq(2) // third
