next adjacent selector
Description: Selects all next elements matching "next" that are immediately preceded by a sibling "prev".
-
version added: 1.0jQuery( "prev + next" )
prev: Any valid selector.
next: A selector to match the element that is next to the first selector.
One important point to consider with both the next adjacent sibling selector (prev + next
) and the general sibling selector (prev ~ siblings
) is that the elements on either side of the combinator must share the same parent.
Example:
Finds all inputs that are next to a label.
