next

Returns the next element for nodes in this dojo.NodeList. Optionally takes a query to filter the next elements.

.end() can be used on the returned dojo.NodeList to get back to the original dojo.NodeList.

Example

Assume a DOM created by this markup:

<div
 class=
"container"

dojo
.
require

);


//This code returns the div with class "red" and has innerHTML of "Red Two" in a dojo.NodeList:

dojo
.
query
(
".first"
).
next
();


//This code does not match any nodes so it returns an empty dojo.NodeList:

dojo
.
query
(
".last"
).
next
(
".red"
);

nextAll

Returns all sibling elements that come after the nodes in this dojo.NodeList. Optionally takes a query to filter the sibling elements.

.end() can be used on the returned dojo.NodeList to get back to the original dojo.NodeList.

Example

Assume a DOM created by this markup:

//This code returns the two divs with class of "next":

dojo
.
query

//This code returns the one div with class "red" and innerHTML "Red Two".

dojo
.
query
(
".first"
).
nextAll
(
".red"
);

prev

Returns the prevIoUs element for nodes in this dojo.NodeList. Optionally takes a query to filter the prevIoUs elements.

.end() can be used on the returned dojo.NodeList to get back to the original dojo.NodeList.

Example

Assume a DOM created by this markup:

dojo
.
require
(
"dojo.NodeList-traverse"
);


//This code returns the div with class "red" and has innerHTML of "Red One" in a dojo.NodeList:

dojo
.
query
(
".first"
).
prev
();


//This code does not match any nodes so it returns an empty dojo.NodeList:

dojo
.
query
(
".first"
).
prev
(
".blue"
);

prevAll

Returns all sibling elements that come before the nodes in this dojo.NodeList. Optionally takes a query to filter the prevIoUs elements.

The returned nodes will be in reverse DOM order -- the first node in the list will be the node closest to the original node/NodeList.

.end() can be used on the returned dojo.NodeList to get back to the original dojo.NodeList.

Example

Assume a DOM created by this markup:

<div
 class=
"container"
>

  <div
 class=
"red prev"
>
Red One</div>

  Some Text
  <div
 class=
"blue prev"
>
Blue One</div>

  <div
 class=
"red second"
>
Red Two</div>

  <div
 class=
"blue last"
>
Blue Two</div>

</div>

dojo
.
require
(
"dojo.NodeList-traverse"
);


//This code returns the two divs with class of "prev":

dojo
.
query
(
".first"
).
prevAll
();


//This code returns the one div with class "red prev" and innerHTML "Red One":

dojo
.
query
(
".first"
).
prevAll
(
".red"
);

andSelf

Adds the nodes from the prevIoUs dojo.NodeList to the current dojo.NodeList.

.end() can be used on the returned dojo.NodeList to get back to the original dojo.NodeList.

Example

Assume a DOM created by this markup:

<div
 class=
"container"
>

  <div
 class=
"red prev"
>
Red One</div>

  Some Text
  <div
 class=
"blue prev"
>
Blue One</div>

  <div
 class=
"red second"
>
Red Two</div>

  <div
 class=
"blue"
>
Blue Two</div>

</div>

dojo
.
require
(
"dojo.NodeList-traverse"
);


//This code returns the two divs with class of "prev",as well as the div with class "second":

dojo
.
query
(
".second"
).
prevAll
().
andSelf
();

first

Returns the first node in this dojo.NodeList as a dojo.NodeList.

This method is provided due to a difference in the Acme query engine used by default in Dojo. The Acme engine does not support ":first" queries,since it is not part of the CSS3 spec. This method can be used to give the same effect. For instance,instead of doing dojo.query("div:first"),you can do dojo.query("div").first().

Example

Assume a DOM created by this markup:

dojo
.
require
(
"dojo.NodeList-traverse"
);


//This code returns the div with class "blue" and "first" in a dojo.NodeList:

dojo
.
query
(
".blue"
).
first
();
