Description

In below javascript - why does the second alert not display "tryagain"

$(function() {

var xml = "<aaa><bbb>try</bbb></aaa>";

var doc = $.parseXML(xml);

$(doc).append("<ccc>tryagain</ccc>");

$("div").append("<ccc>tryagain</ccc>");

alert($(doc).find("bbb").text());

alert($(doc).find("ccc").text());

alert($("div").find("ccc").text());

});

Here a link to jsfiddle working example:

I first found the solution to created the appendChild jquery function

jQuery.fn.appendChild = function(ns, nodeName) {

var dom = document.implementation.createDocumentNS(ns, nodeName, null);

var element=dom.createElement(nodeName);

this.append(element);

};

But nice to know about the difference between nodeType 1 and 9 -

Now I created the appenXMLfragment function

jQuery.fn.appendXMLfragment = function(xml) {

var node = $.parseXML(xml);

this.append($(":first", node));

};

sorry

jQuery.fn.appendChildNS = function(ns, nodeName) {

var dom = document.implementation.createDocument(ns, nodeName, null); var element=dom.createElement(nodeName); this.append(element);

};
