Question

What the difference between text() and html() functions in jQuery ?

$(\"#div\").html(\'Linkhello\         


        

Answer 1

text function set or retrieve the value as plain text, otherwise, HTML function set or retrieve the value as HTML tags to change or modify that. If you want to just change the content then use text(). But if you need to change the markup then you have to use hmtl().

It's a dummy answer for me after six years, Don't mind.
