html - Can I set the content of a jQuery text() Method to be another .text() method? -

i have content in <p class='firstline'> , want display inside <p class='secondline'> possible on 1 line in jquery without using function within text() method? $('p.secondline').text($('p.firstline'));

yes, possible. can set innertext of 1 element innertext of element.

you didn't call text() in code. $('p.secondline').text($('p.firstline'));.

$('p.secondline').text($('p.firstline').text()); //                                     ^^^^^^^
