Targeting A Month Object

[jimfog]

Using getMonth i have inserted the month inside a div(.calendar). I want, using jQuery to wrap this in a p tag, since now, it is just a text node. Here is the code i used(and did not work):

$('.calendar').contents().filter(function() {  return this.this.(textMonths[month]);;}).wrap('<p class="month"/>');

What is wrong in the above "picture"? The code that outputs the month is the following:

$('.calendar:eq(1)').prepend(function(){var f = new Date();var d = new Date(f.getFullYear(), f.getMonth(), 1);var month = (d.getMonth() + 1) % 12;textMonths = [----monthsgohere"];$(this).prepend(textMonths[month]);});

The above code was created with the contribution of other forum members here http://w3schools.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=40801&hl=&fromsearch=1

Did you make some sort of typing mistake here?

this.this.(textMonths[month]);;

Why not just output within Paragraph tags

$('.calendar:eq(1)').prepend(function(){var f = new Date();var d = new Date(f.getFullYear(), f.getMonth(), 1);var month = (d.getMonth() + 1) % 12;textMonths = [----months go here"];$(this).prepend('<p>'+textMonths[month]+'</p>');});

Or place empty p tag with class, and then add the month using html()

$('.calendar:eq(1)').prepend(function(){var f = new Date();var d = new Date(f.getFullYear(), f.getMonth(), 1);var month = (d.getMonth() + 1) % 12;textMonths = [----months go here"];$(this).children('p.month').html(textMonths[month]);});

At last, a solution was find, many thanks.I am not experienced with jQyery and in general with javascript...still learming.

you could also create the p element on the fly

var p = $('<p></p>');p.html(textMonths[month]);//append or insert into element here

or$(this).prepend($('<p></p>').html(textMonths[month]));
