How to wrapAll children of element?

Question

I have :

<div>
  <a> //this
    <span>sometext<span> //problem
  </a>
  <a></a> //this
  <a></a> //this
  <span>sometext</span> //this
  <div><div>
  <input>
</div>

I need to wrap marked elements and get result like this :

<div>
  <div> //wrapped
    <a> 
      <span>sometext<span> 
    </a>
    <a></a> 
    <a></a> 
    <span>sometext</span>
  </div> //wrapped
    <div><div>
    <input>

</div>

But when i do this with $("div a, div span").wrapAll("<div></div>"); its taking span from a but I didn't write div a span . So I get this :

<div>
  <div> //wrapped
    <a>       
    </a>
    <span>sometext<span> //need to be child of tag a
    <a></a> 
    <a></a> 
    <span>sometext</span>
  </div> //wrapped
    <div><div>
    <input>

</div>

Answer 1

You should do this by class: $(".classname").wrapAll(""); and add the class classname to your first div

Answer 2

But it will be better to add a class/some other identifier to the container div

<div class="someclass">
    <a> //this
        <span>sometext</span> //problem
    </a>
    <a></a> //this
    <a></a> //this
    <span>sometext</span> //this
    <div></div>
    <input />
</div>

then

$("div.someclass").children("a, span").wrapAll("<div />");
