<div class="cell">
<input onchange="some long code" class="theInput" type="text" value="1" /></div>

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "behind the inputs", but you can't really append something to an input. Append adds the element inside, and there is no inside for an input. If you want to add something after the input you could do:

$(".theInput").after($addButtons);

Have you wrapped the code in a

$(document).ready(function(){$(".theInput").append($addButtons);
});

You have to wait for the Dom to be loaded until you can target elements
