jQuery - After number of elements add html!

I need to know if I can count the elements inside a div and after 3 elements开发者_StackOverflow社区 to add an html object.

<div id="wrapper">
<a href="#">1</a>
<a href="#">1</a>
<a href="#">1</a>
//insert html with jQuery here
<a href="#">1</a>
<a href="#">1</a>
<a href="#">1</a>
//insert html with jQuery here
<a href="#">1</a>
<a href="#">1</a>
<a href="#">1</a>
//insert html with jQuery here
</div>

$('#wrapper a').each(function(i,e){
  if (((i+1) % 3) == 0)
    $(this).after('<p>Hello, world.</p>');
});

Take advantage of .each's "i" parameter that gives you element index. Than you can use Modulo to get the 3rd item and append.

at this point just showing an alternative solution

Take a look at the nth-child-selector.

Basically:

$("#wrapper a:nth-child(3n)").after("<span>I'm new.</span>");

$('#wrapper a').each(function(index) {
  if ((index+ 1) % 3 == 0)
     $(this).after(content);
});
