It is also possible to iterate through all elements within a specific context, no mattter how deeply nested they are:

$('input', $('#mydiv')).each(function () {
    console.log($(this)); //log every element found to console output
});

The second parameter $('#mydiv') which is passed to the jQuery 'input' Selector is the context. In this case the each() clause will iterate through all input elements within the #mydiv container, even if they are not direct children of #mydiv.

I don t think that you need to use  each    you can use standard for loop  var children    element children   not   pb-sortable-placeholder    for  var i   0  i  lt  children length  i          var currentChild   children eq i          whatever logic you want     var oldPosition   currentChild data  position        this way you can have the standard for loop features like break and continue works by default   also  the debugging will be easier

myDiv   children   each   index  element    gt        console log index          children s index     console log element        children s element        This iterates through all the children and their element with index value can be accessed separately using element and index respectively

Use children   and each    you can optionally pass a selector to children      mydiv   children  input   each function          alert this value       this  is the current element in the loop       You could also just use the immediate child selector       mydiv  gt  input   each function

If you need to loop through child elements recursively   function recursiveEach  element        element children   each function              var  currentElement     this              Show element         console info  currentElement              Show events handlers of current element         console info  currentElement data  events                Loop her children         recursiveEach  currentElement                 Parent div recursiveEach     div               NOTE    In this example I show the events handlers registered with an object
