$("#SecondPara").append("<div><h4>This is newly created div element</h4</div></br>");
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<button>WikiTechy - Add new controls and div element dynamicaly</button>
<p>Click above button to dynamically add div element below</p>
<p id="SecondPara"></p>
</body>
</html>
Code Explanation:
Inside the <script src= ” http://code.jquery.com/jquery.js “> </script> the ajax library has been called using the (src)=source attribute.
Here we have created the button using button element and have created a paragraph section where the id name is “SecondPara”.
The $(document).ready(function); - specifies that the document to be fully loaded and ready before working with it, in order to prevent any jQuery code from running before the document is finished loading.
$("button").click(function(){ - here is the button click event, which has been called here as element selector whose element “button” has been assigned for the click function.
Here in this statement we use the id selector “SecondPara” assigned for the append function for the element “div,h4”.
Sample Output:
Here in this output we have shown the button” WikiTechy - Add new controls and div element dynamicaly” initially there is no div element which will be added dynamically as shown here.
Here in this output we have shown the button” WikiTechy-Add new list item” clicked for 1st time where the new div & h4 element “This is newly created div element” has be added in the window as shown.
Similarly, here in this output we have shown the button” WikiTechy-Add new list item” clicked for 2nd time where the new div & h4 element “This is newly created div element” has be added in the window as shown.
In the sameway, here in this output we have shown the button” WikiTechy-Add new list item” clicked for 3rd time where the new div & h4 element “This is newly created div element” has be added in the window as shown.
