JQuery Reference Manual-Traversal
JQuery traversal function
The JQuery traversal function includes methods for filtering, finding, and concatenating elements.
Function
Describe
. Add ()
Adds an element to the collection of matching elements.
. Andself ()
Adds the previous set of elements in the stack to the current collection.
. Children ()
Gets all the child elements of each element in the matching element collection.
. Closest ()
Starting with the element itself, it is progressively matched to the ancestor element and returns the first matching ancestor element.
. Contents ()
Gets the child elements of each element in the matching element collection, including the text and comment nodes.
. each ()
Iterates over the JQuery object and executes the function for each matching element.
. End ()
Ends the most recent filter operation in the current chain and returns a collection of matching elements to the previous state.
. EQ ()
Reduces the collection of matching elements to a new element at the specified index.
. Filter ()
Reduces the set of matching elements to a new element that matches the selector or the return value of the matching function.
. Find ()
Gets the descendants of each element in the current matching element collection, filtered by the selector.
. First ()
Reduces the collection of matching elements to the first element in the collection.
. has ()
Reduces the collection of matching elements to a collection of descendants that contain a particular element.
. is ()
Checks the current set of matching elements based on the selector, and returns true if at least one of the matching elements exists.
. Last ()
Reduces the collection of matching elements to the last element in the collection.
. Map ()
Passes each element in the current matching collection to the function, producing a new JQuery object that contains the return value.
. Next ()
Gets the sibling element adjacent to each element in the matching element collection.
. Nextall ()
Gets all the sibling elements after each element in the matching element collection, optionally filtered by selectors.
. Nextuntil ()
Get all the sibling elements after each element until you encounter the element that matches the selector.
. Not ()
Removes an element from the collection of matching elements.
. OffsetParent ()
Gets the first parent element used for positioning.
. Parent ()
Gets the parent element of each element of the current matching element collection, optionally filtered by the selector.
. Parents ()
Gets the ancestor element of each element in the current matching element collection, optionally filtered by the selector.
. Parentsuntil ()
Gets the ancestor element of each element in the current matching element collection until it encounters an element that matches the selector.
. Prev ()
Gets the previous sibling element immediately adjacent to each element in the matching element collection, optionally filtered by the selector.
. Prevall ()
Gets all sibling elements before each element in the matching element collection, optionally filtered by selectors.
. Prevuntil ()
Get all of the sibling elements before each element until you encounter the element that matches the selector.
. Siblings ()
Gets the sibling elements of all elements in the matching element collection, optionally filtered by the selector.
. Slice ()
Reduces the collection of matching elements to a subset of the specified range.
