Access wrapping element with `wrap()`

I'm using the jQuery开发者_高级运维 function wrap(), which returns the original object, not the wrapping object. Is there an easy way to access the wrapping object?

Use the parent^{[API Ref]} method:

$('#myElement').wrap('<div></div>').parent();

You can give wrapping an element an id and reference it something like:

$('..........').wrap('<div id="mydiv" />');

Now you can reference the wrapper element using:

$('#mydiv')

Or you can simply use parent()

After you wrap an element actually you are assigning a parent to it.

So, use $('yourWrappedElement').parent()
