jQuery is a popular JavaScript library that provides a simple and concise syntax for working with HTML documents, handling events, manipulating the DOM, and performing Ajax requests. When the user clicks a button, use jQuery to add a new input element to an HTML page. Here's how the code works: 

  • The HTML code creates a container with a text input field and a button. A new copy of the text input field is added to the container when the button is clicked. 
  • The jQuery code waits for the document to be ready and then attaches a click event listener to the "Add More" button. 
  • When the button clicks, the code selects the first text input field in the container using the .find() method and creates a copy using the .clone() method. 
  • The new copy of the input field is then appended to the container using the .append() method. 


The append() method adds new elements to an existing set of elements. In this case, it adds a copy of the input field to the container. 


Using jQuery to add elements to an HTML page can be very helpful when you need to dynamically add or remove elements based on user input or other conditions. It allows you to create dynamic and interactive web pages that respond to user actions without reloading the entire page.

Code

In this solution we have used append() method.

Instructions

  1. Download and install VS Code on your desktop.
  2. Open VS Code and create a new file in the editor.
  3. Copy the code snippet that you want to run, using the "Copy" button or by selecting the text and using the copy command (Ctrl+C on Windows/Linux or Cmd+C on Mac).
  4. Paste the code into your file in VS Code, and save the file with a meaningful name and the appropriate file extension (.html for HTML, .js for JavaScript, etc.).
  5. To run the code, open the file in VS Code and click the "Run" button in the top menu, or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt+N (on Windows and Linux) or Cmd+Alt+N (on Mac). The output of your code will appear in the VS Code output console.



I hope you found this useful. I have added the version information in the following sections.


I found this code snippet by searching for append() is not working properly in jquery? in kandi. You can try any such use case!
