In jQuery, using the "find' function, what does this expression mean: $(".divName").find('> div') -

I understand the "search" function, I just do not know what it means by "div". Can anyone help?

This means that all direct "div" descendants (without other elements in between)

So, if your HTML is:

  & lt; Div id = "id1" & gt; & Lt; Div id = "id2" & gt; & Lt; Div id = "id3" & gt; & Lt; / Div & gt; & Lt; / Div & gt; & Lt; / Div & gt; 
 "id2" and "id3"    
  $ ("# id1"). ("Div")  Code> $ ("# id1"). ("& Gt; div") ("& gt; div")  only div "id2"
