Perhaps the documentation should also be fixed to note that .append
actually accepts multiple arguments to append, not just one.
One of the comments in that ticket was that he could not use:
var form = $( '<form/>' ); form.append(
$( "<input type='radio'" ).attr( 'value','1' ).after( $( '<label/>'
).text('true') ) .after(
$( "<input type='radio'" ).attr( 'value','0' ).after( $( '<label/>'
).text('false') )
)
);
Truth is that statement could have been written (and perhaps cleaner) by
using a multi-arg .append rather than .after;
var form = $('<form/>').append(
$('<input type=radio>').attr('value', 1), $('<label/>').text('true'),
$('<input type=radio>').attr('value', 0), $('<label/>').text('false')
);
Of course an .append(...).append(...); would work as well.
