All current-model iPod-compatible FM transmitters will either use the standard dock connector or just the headphone jack. If it has a headphone jack with another small tab with electrical contacts next to it, it's designed for the older iPod models (but those have all probably been clearanced by now).
Keep in mind, however, that FM transmitters have _very_ low power signals, and they generally don't work well with car stereos unless you're either parked or living in the most rural parts of Montana. Any incoming signal that your car stereo is actually capable of receiving will prevent your FM transmitter from getting through on that frequency, and the location and orientation of your car will result in some stations tuning in and out, so having a clear channel when you start your car does not guarantee that you'll still have one when you pull out of the driveway. And you can forget having it work properly on long road trips. Better options would be to use a line-in cord (look for what appears to be a headphone jack on the face of the stereo), a standard USB sync cable (again, USB port on the face), a cassette adapter (if your stereo has a tape deck), or RCA audio inputs (they'll be located on the back of the deck).

If you bought a transmitter made specifically for iPods it should say on the packaging which generations, if not all, it will support.
If it is a generic transmitter the packaging should still indicate what types of MP3 players it supports, which usually include all the series of iPods.
