How do I select the next “n” elements starting from the current element in jQuery?

Question

How do I select the next \"n\" elements starting from the current element? What I mean is...

 $(this).attr(...);

I want to do this \"n\" times

Answer 1

This should work:

$(this).nextAll().slice(0,4).attr(…)

Update:

This will work, too:

$(this).nextAll("*:lt(4)").attr(…)
