Get the text after span element using jquery
I have this html code
<div id="mydiv">
<div>
<span>Text inside span</span>
Text next to span
</div>
<div>
Contents inside the 2nd div element...
</div>
</div>
I wanted to get the "Text next to span". I tried this code JQuery code
var a = $('#mydiv div').first().find('span').parent().text();
alert(a);
The output of the jquery code above is this:
Text inside span
Text next to span
What should be the right thing to do to just get only the "Text next to span"?
var a = $('#mydiv div').first().contents().filter(function() {
return this.nodeType == 3;
}).text();
This gets the contents of the selected div
, and filters the matched set, returning only elements with nodeType == 3
, which are text nodes.
I got it by this:
$('#mydiv div').first().contents().eq(1).text();
Use this code:
$('#myDiv')
.contents()
.filter(function() {
return this.nodeType == Node.TEXT_NODE;
}).text();
