blueimp/jQuery-File-Upload & jquery tree traversal methods on input element

blueimp/jQuery-File-Upload & jquery tree traversal methods on input element

I'm trying to implement file uploading with the help of
https://github.com/blueimp/jQuery-File-Upload and have come across some
weird behavior that I hope somebody can explain to me, or it might
actually be a bug, I don't know.
I followed the minimal setup guide
(https://github.com/blueimp/jQuery-File-Upload/wiki/Basic-plugin) and
setup a new project where I change this (only the script):
<body>
<input id="fileupload" type="file" name="files[]" multiple>
</body>
-
<script>
$(function () {
$('#fileupload').fileupload({
dataType: 'json',
done: function (e, data) {
$.each(data.result.files, function (index, file) {
$('<p/>').text(file.name).appendTo(document.body);
});
}
});
});
</script>
to this (to illustrate the issue I have). I introduce a variable and
assign $('#fileupload') to it and work with the variable from there on:
<script>
$(function () {
var $elem = $('#fileupload');
$('#fileupload').fileupload({
dataType: 'json',
done: function (e, data) {
$.each(data.result.files, function (index, file) {
$('<p/>').text(file.name).appendTo(document.body);
});
}
});
$elem.on('change', function(e) {
console.log($elem.parent());
console.log($elem.next());
console.log($elem.prev());
console.log($elem.siblings());
});
</script>
Int the second example for some reason jQuery's tree traversal methods
like parent(), next(), prev() or sibling() won't work with
$elem
any more after clicking the input button and loading some random image. Is
this a bug or am I simply missing something here?
thx for the help
