According to that link, .after() always returns a jQuery object. While .html() can return either a jQuery object or a String, depending on the arguments passed in. If something returns a jQuery object, that means that its chainable and that you can continue to add actions on to it (e.g. $().after().html("foo").after()...) --John _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
