I am trying to count LI elements, and addclass to another div.
For example,
$('.box2').addClass(function(){
return 'list' + $(this).find('.box1 li').length;
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<ul class="box1">
<li>a</li>
<li>b</li>
<li>c</li>
</ul>
<div class="box2">text</div>
This should be like this
<div class="box2 list3">text</div>
But I don't know why when I check on the DOM code,
<div class="box2 list0">text</div>
I get this result.
What do I need to fix the code?

@Mr.Alien Aconsole.log($(this)

. If you reverse the HTML structure ofbox1

and change theJavaScript
toreturn 'list' + $(this).find('+ .box1 li').length;

this is not pointing to the element you are thinking, it is referring to DIV element on which the addClass()
is invoked and this element does not have .box1 li
. Thus find()
is failing to refer your intended element.
Simply use:
$('.box1 li').length
$('.box2').addClass(function(){
console.log(this.nodeName); // DIV
return 'list' + $('.box1 li').length;
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<ul class="box1">
<li>a</li>
<li>b</li>
<li>c</li>
</ul>
<div class="box2">text</div>
add a comment |
$(this).find
will find the li
in the div
with box2
class which are not present. Instead check this in the div
with box1
class and find the li
elements
$('.box2').addClass(function(){
return 'list' + $('.box1').find('li').length;
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<ul class="box1">
<li>a</li>
<li>b</li>
<li>c</li>
</ul>

You can simply do this by following method
$('.box2').addClass('list' + $('.box1 li').length);
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<ul class="box1">
<li>a</li>
<li>b</li>
<li>c</li>

<ul class="box1">
<li>a</li>
<li>b</li>
<li>c</li>
</ul>
<div class="box2">text</div>
$(this).find
will find the li
in the div
with box2
class which are not present. Instead check this in the div
with box1
class and find the li
elements
$('.box2').addClass(function(){
return 'list' + $('.box1').find('li').length;
});

You can simply do this by following method
$('.box2').addClass('list' + $('.box1 li').length);

Your
$(this)
is not pointing to.box2
as you expect– Mr. Alien

@Mr.Alien It is what it actually does, pointing to
.box2
, hence not working as expected as there is no.box1
after it.– LGSon

@Mr.Alien A
console.log($(this)
shows that$(this)
is pointing to.box2
. If you reverse the HTML structure ofbox1
andbox2
and change theJavaScript
toreturn 'list' + $(this).find('+ .box1 li').length;
, you'll see it's working properly using the adjacent sibling selector added to the start offind
