I am trying to add some content to the DOM using a jQuery selector

  • 0

I am trying to add some content to the DOM using a jQuery selector but I want to manipulate it before it gets added.

var $content = $('<h1>title</h1><h2 id="xx">remove me</h2><p>some content or other</p>');

$content.remove('#xx');

$('#output').append($content);

I have put this on jsfiddle here http://jsfiddle.net/NNcG5/1/

Many thanks,
Mike

    I’d recommend $content.not('#xx').appendTo('#output');

    I also updated your JS Fiddle with the solution too, here.
