Closest Element

in Using jQuery • 2 years ago

Hello,

The creators of jQuery could add a new method.

It will be used to indicate the closest element of the selector indicated, example:

<div id="test">test</div>
<br>
<div class="hello">hello</div>
<br>
<div class="hello">hello</div>
<script>$('#test').closestElement('.hello').text('haha'); OR $('#test').closestElement('div').text('haha');</script>

In this case it will return:

test
haha
hello

If exists a method equal to this, tell me.

Sorry For My English, i'm using the Google Translate.

.next() – jQuery API finds the next element.

Hello,

But if the code is so:

<div id="test">test</div>
<br>
<div id="hello">hello</div>
<br>
<div class="hello">hello</div>
<script>$('#test').closestElement('.hello').text('haha'); OR $('#test').closestElement('div').text('haha');</script>

So will return:

test
hello
haha
