html - How can I add an element after another element?

Question

I have a certain textbox and I want to add a div after it. I've tried the .append() function, but that only adds the div in the element.

For example, I have:

<input type="text" id="bla" />

and I want to change that into:

<input type="text" id="bla" /><div id="space"></div>

Answer 1

try using the after() method:

$('#bla').after('<div id="space"></div>');
