Creating a div element in jQuery


How do I create a div element in jQuery?


Solution

  • You can use append (to add at last position of parent) or prepend (to add at fist position of parent):

    $('#parent').append('<div>hello</div>');    
    // or
    $('<div>hello</div>').appendTo('#parent');
    

    Alternatively, you can use the .html() or .add() as mentioned in a different answer.
