Day 018 - Children

In previous days you've added some text to a h1.

$('h1').text('here is some text');

You've also added HTML content to the body.

$('body').html('<h1>Here Is Some HTML</h1>);

This is great, but what if things are a little more complicated? You've got two ul, but you only want to manipulate one of the lists.

Take a look at this code.

$('ul.one').children('li').css('color', 'blue');

This will search for a ul which has a class of one, then any li that are direct children, will have the CSS value changed to blue.

For a closer look, you can open up this demo and inspect the code.
