Ricardo - thanks for clarifying on the insertion.
So... when i tried to do $(element).after('<div class="foo">'); ... was it
automagically closing the element? I added $(element).after('<div
class="foo">bar'); and saw the text "bar" appear... so even tho it was
invalid HTML, it still inserted something. Just curious about what was
going on there.
the nextUntil looks -very- cool.
Thanks,
Charlie
