jquery next() methodsyntax
Function: next() obtains the sibling elements immediately adjacent to each element in the matching element set. If a selector is provided, retrieves the next sibling element that matches the selector.
Syntax: .next(selector)
Parameters:
Parameter | Description |
selector | String value, containing the selector expression used to match elements. |
Description: If given a jQuery object that represents a collection of DOM elements, the .next() method allows us to search for elements in the DOM tree followed by sibling elements and constructs a new jQuery object with the matching element. The method accepts an optional selector expression of the same type that I passed into the $() function. If the following sibling element matches the selector, it will remain in the newly constructed jQuery object; otherwise, it will be excluded.
