What does the following JQuery code mean and how would the HTML code look like using the following JQuery code?
Here is the JQuery code.
$("div.result").html(html);
Your snippet searches the HTML document for a <div> with the class name result. If the element is found then the contents of html will replace the contents of the found element.
Thus, if html is Hello <strong>World</strong>! This:
<div class="result">Well, <em>hi</em> there.</div>
Will be:
<div class="result">Hello <strong>World</strong>!</div>
