jQuery append child nodes in for each

Question

In the below code I'm trying to loop through each child node and append the child to another element - what is the correct syntax inside the loop?

$(this).children().each(    
    $(div).appendChild(this.childNodes.length - 1);
);

Answer 1

Within the each() function, this refers to the thing you're iterating on, in this case the children(). It's not the this of the original jQuery object.

Therefore:

$(this).children().each(function() {    
    $(div).appendChild($(this));
});
