Replace the surround of an html element with another document
- by KvanteTore
I have an html page with (among other things) a Unity3D window. I would like to replace everything on the page without causing the Unity window to reload. I have tried the following jquery-tastic
function replaceSurround(keepElem, newElem)
{
keepElem.siblings().remove();
keepElem.prepend(newElem.prevAll());
keepElem.append(newElem.nextAll());
var keepParent = keepElem.parent();
var newParent = newElem.parent();
if (keepParent && newParent)
{
replaceSurround(keepParent, newParent);
}
}
where keepElem is an element in the original document and newElem is the corresponding element in the new document, but it did not work very well.
