<p class="desc"><strong>Description: </strong>Get the immediately following sibling of each element in the set of matched elements. If a selector is provided, it retrieves the next sibling only if it matches that selector.</p>
<ul class="signatures"><li class="signature" id="next-selector">
<h4 class="name">
<span class="versionAdded">version added: <a href="/category/version/1.0/">1.0</a></span>.next( [selector] )</h4>
<p class="arguement"><strong>selector</strong>A string containing a selector expression to match elements against.</p>
</li></ul>
<div class="longdesc">
<p>Given a jQuery object that represents a set of DOM elements, the <code>.next()</code> method allows us to search through the immediately following sibling of these elements in the DOM tree and construct a new jQuery object from the matching elements.</p>
<p>The method optionally accepts a selector expression of the same type that we can pass to the <code>$()</code> function. If the immediately following sibling matches the selector, it remains in the newly constructed jQuery object; otherwise, it is excluded.</p>
<p>Consider a page with a simple list on it:</p>
<pre>
<ul>
<li>list item 1</li>
<li>list item 2</li>
<li class="third-item">list item 3</li>
<li>list item 4</li>
<li>list item 5</li>
</ul>
</pre>
<p>If we begin at the third item, we can find the element which comes just after it:</p>
<pre>$('li.third-item').next().css('background-color', 'red');</pre>
<p>The result of this call is a red background behind item 4. Since we do not supply a selector expression, this following element is unequivocally included as part of the object. If we had supplied one, the element would be tested for a match before it was included.</p>
