jquery prevAll() methodsyntax

Function: prevAll() obtains the previous sibling elements of each element in the current matching element set. Filtering with a selector is optional.

Syntax: .prevAll(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 .prevAll() method allows us to search in front of these elements in the DOM tree sibling elements and constructs a new jQuery object with the matching element. This method accepts an optional selector expression of the same type as the argument we passed into the $() function. If this selector is applied, elements will be filtered by testing whether they match the selector.
