Thanks (late) to everybody for answering.Saw your posts just now. I
overlooked that line in the documentation...RTFM to me! Sorry about
that.
However, do you know if there is another way to achieve the same
result, without inserting the nodes in the DOM first?
By chance, i've found the "add()" method to push more nodes inside a
jquery object. Is this the right way to do it?
a = $('<p>foo</p><p>bar</p>'); a.add('<b>xyz</b>') --> is a equivalent
to $('<p>foo</p><p>bar</p><b>xyz</b>') ?
