[jQuery] Re: Counting the number of child elements that a div has

[wattaka]

Thanks Wizzud, but this does not work with elements that are
dynamically added to the DOM, is there another way? Thanks

[Scott Trudeau]

It should. I just typed this into my Firebug console on a page including
jQuery:

$('body').append('div id=test/div');

$('#test').append('p'+ $('#test').children().size()  +'/p');

$('#test').append('p'+ $('#test').children().size()  +'/p');

$('#test').append('p'+ $('#test').children().size()  +'/p');

Seemed to work as expected

http://docs.jquery.com/Core/length

$(#divid  #childrenids).length

or maybe $(#divid).children().length to get all of them no matter
what type of children elements they are
