包装的内容无法正常工作

Question

var parent = $('<div>parent</div>');
$('div').wrap(parent);

parent.append('<div>appended</div>');

I am testing it with below html code and append method doesn't work on parent object. Where i am doing mistake ?

<div>child</div>

Edit: Expected html result is

<div>parent
<div>child</div>
<div>appended</div>
</div>

Answer 1

You can do this:

$('div').wrap('<div>parent</div>').after('<div>appended</div>');

As every div is the only child of the wrapped around element, appending to the parent is the same as inserting the new element after the div .

Answer 2

Try

 $(parent).html($(parent).html() + '<div>appended</div>');

Or

 $(parent).append($('<div></div>').html('appended'));

Also this might work

 $(parent).append($('<div>appended</div>'));

Answer 3

You caould try giving the child and ID:

HTML

<div id="child">child</div>

jQuery

var parent = '<div>parent</div>';
$('div').wrap(parent);

$('#child').parent().append('<div>appended</div>');
