The following style rules, added to the style sheet, will align the chapter titles to the left and the
page numbers to the right:
#toc li {
text-align:left;
}
#toc span {
float: right;
}
Note that these styles use the list's ID, that was defined in the first line of code. For information
about style sheets, see "Styling templates with CSS files" on page187.
parent()
Returns the parents of the elements in a set. (In HTML, a parent is an element that contains
another element.)
To get an ancestor that matches a particular selector, use closest() (see "Examples" on
page502).
Example
Assume that there are three paragraphs in a Box and that one of those paragraphs matches the
selector of this script. The paragraph is stored in the results object (see "results" on page486).
The script retrieves the Box (which is the parent of the paragraph) using results.parent(), and
then changes its background color to red.
results.parent().css('background-color' , 'red');
prepend()
Insert contentat the beginningof each element in the set of HTML elements that match the
selector of the script or of another query in the template (see "query()" on page481).See also:
"Examples" on page494.
prepend(content)
Insert contentas the first element toeach element in the set of HTML elements that match the
selector of the script or of another query in the template (see "query()" on page481).Append
creates a new result set.
