Question

i have the following code

 <div class="hitarea expandable-hitarea"></div>
<span class="folder">level 1</span>
<ul style="display: none;">

I wants to prepend the element

to span.
so the result would be

 <div class="hitarea expandable-hitarea"></div>
<li><span class="folder">level 1</span></li>
<ul style="display: none;">

i have level 1 in javascript variable.
So i can’t use selector direct.

Can anyone tell me how can i perform above.
Thanks in Advance.

You can use jQuery wrap:

$( '.folder' ).wrap( '<li />' );
