not able to add list item between a list using jquery

I m having a ordered list having the structure

<ol>
      <li>
      </li>
      <li>
      </li>
      <li>
         <ol>
              <li>
                 Test
              </li>
              <li>
                 another test
              </li>
              <li>
                   <a href='#'>Add </a>
              </li>
         </ol>
      </li>

</ol>

I want to add a list item between sublist 2 and 3 using jquery

I used the code: -

$("ol#update li ol li:eq(1)").append("<li> test </li>");

But this appends inside the li "another test" and not after the 2 li

Here is the example开发者_如何学编程 page

On-click "sub-comment" adds a li inside li 2

Clicking on "comment" shows the structure of the sub lis

Please help

Thanks

Use after instead of append

I'm not big into jquery... but using normal javascript functions (as well) you can do:

var item = $("ol#update li ol li:eq(1)");
var thingToAppend = document.createElement('li');
thingToAppend.innerHTML = ' test ';
item.parentNode.insertBefore(item, thingToAppend);
// or
item.parentNode.appendChild(thingToAppend);
// or apparently.... with jQuery something like:
item.after(thingToAppend);
