Date: 2009dec13 Language: javaScript Q. How do I insert/inject html into a page with jQuery? A. Use before() or after() like this:

$('#my_id').before('<b>Hello</b>'); $('#my_id').after('<b>Hello</b>');

There are also insertBefore() and insertAfter() methods but they work in a way I found counter-intuitive. The wrap() method is useful in some cases. If you want to replace the HTML in a tag use html() like this:

$('#my_id').html('<b>Hello</b>');
