[jQuery] Re: multiline string

[Karl Swedberg]

Another way you could do this with multiple lines would be to  
use .insertAfter() . Something like this maybe:


$(')
.append('sample')
.insertAfter('p');

The + operator does string concatenation in JavScript:

$('p').after(
'' +
'sample' +

Turned out that this is a little slow thus I tend to use a  
array.join() if the string gets longer, which is known to be faster:


$('p').after([
'',
'sample',
''
].join(''));

hi,

I am trying to use the jQuery .after() function. I have something like
this ..

$('p').after('sample');

I want to transform it into something like this to make the code much
easier to read

$('p').after('

sample

');

how can I achieve this?

Thanks
james
