I was wondering if there was any method to get a html element / node without its children as a string.
This question might seem like a duplicate of this question: jQuery, get html of a whole element .
But i only want the html element itself as a string, without its children.
texts.push({title:'[#target, outerHTML]', value: $input[0].outerHTML});
texts.push({title:'[#target, $.html()]', value: $input.html()});
texts.push({title:'[#bigger_Target, outerHTML]', value: $('#bigger_Target')[0].outerHTML});
texts.push({title:'[#bigger_Target, $.html()]', value: $('#bigger_Target').html()});
texts.push({title:'[#target, DESIRED]', value: '<input class="test" data-type="text only" type="button" value="Test />"'});
texts.push({title:'[#bigger_Target, DESIRED]', value: '<div id="bigger_Target" />'});

The easiest way I can think of is to clone it shallow with DOM's cloneNode
, then get the outerHTML
of that:
var element = $("selector for the element you want");
var html = element[0].cloneNode(false).outerHTML;
Example (made my own, wow was that fiddle complex)
Or with more jQuery: Example
var html = $("selector for the element you want")
.clone()
.contents()
.remove()
.end()[0].outerHTML;
Note that the text inside the element is "child" content (specifically, one or more Text
node children). If you want those, you'll need a loop. jQuery's contents
can help there: Example
var html = $("selector for the element you want")
.clone()
.contents()
.each(function() {
if (this.nodeType !== 3) { // It's not a Text node...
$(this).remove(); // ...nuke it
}
})
.end()[0].outerHTML;
