First word wrap with <span> and remaining text wrap with another <span> separated with <br> tag using Jquery

Question

I want to add first word in one tag and remaining text in another tag separated with
between them. Basically I want this type of html structure.

<div class="hotspot-name">
  <span>Building</span>
  <br/>
  <span>One text text</span>
</div>

Whatever I have tried mentioned in below snippet.

 $(".hotspot-name span").each(function () { var html = $(this).html().split(" "); html = html.slice(0, -1).join(" ") + " <br />" + html.pop(); $(this).html(html); }); 

 .hotspot-name{margin-top:10px;} 

 <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.1.1.min.js"></script> <div class="hotspot-name"> <span>Building One</span> </div> <div class="hotspot-name"> <span>Building Two test test</span> </div> <div class="hotspot-name"> <span>Building Three test test</span> </div> <div class="hotspot-name"> <span>Building Four</span> </div> 

Thanks!!

Answer 1

Array[0] in one span and then Remaining values pass with another element see the reference Array slice upto N .

I was updated with color for differentiate the two span

 $(".hotspot-name span").each(function () { var html = $(this).html().split(" "); html = '<span class="first_span">'+html[0] + " </span><br /><span class='second_span'>" + html.slice(1).join(" ")+'</span>'; $(this).html(html); }); 

 .hotspot-name{margin-top:10px;} .first_span{ color:green; } .second_span{ color:red; } 

 <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.1.1.min.js"></script> <div class="hotspot-name"> <span>Building One</span> </div> <div class="hotspot-name"> <span>Building Two test test</span> </div> <div class="hotspot-name"> <span>Building Three test test</span> </div> <div class="hotspot-name"> <span>Building Four</span> </div>

To achieve this you can split the text of the span within the .hotspot-name elements to an array, and then build the two spans with the resulting values. Try this:

 $('.hotspot-name span').text(function(i, t) { var arr = t.split(' '); var html = '<span>' + arr.shift() + '</span></br><span>' + arr.join(' ') + '</span>'; $(this).closest('.hotspot-name').html(html); }); 

 .hotspot-name{ margin-top: 10px; } /* only to show the effect working... */ .hotspot-name span:first-child { color: #C00; }

AS i understand will be:

$(".hotspot-name span").each(function () {
  var html = $(this).html().split(" ");
  html = html.slice(1, html.length).join(" ") + " <br />" + html.pop();
  $(this).text($(this).html().split(" ")[0]+'</br>');
$(this).append(<span>'+html+'</span>');
});
