Ever wondering how to select children in JQuery? No? Then skip to the next article.
My case is the following – I present a div with divs, and I try to select its children, changing the borders and the background. Simple as this:
Thus, first I have given ids as main1, main2 and main 3 to my main divs. Then I have tried to select their children with some properties from within the brackets as “div:last-child” and outside the brackets as last(). Even the works pretty well, adding text “This is the second child”.
Long story short – here comes the code:
