Get the very next node with jQuery

Question

I'm sure it's pretty easy, but I just can get it to work.

I have the following structure:

<div class="row forWidget"></div>
<div class="droppable"></div>

I have the first element in my jQuery object.

$widget = $('div.row');

And I want to .find() the element div.droppable from there.

How do I achieve this? I thought it would be .next(), but it seems to only match real siblings.

Answer 1

You serach for the .next()

var next = $('div.row').next();

From jQuery site

Get the immediately following sibling of each element in the set of matched elements. If a selector is provided, it retrieves the next sibling only if it matches that selector.
