javascript - How to select nth next data element starting from current? -

i have html structure so:

<div data-month="january"></div> <div data-month="february"></div> <div data-month="march"></div> <div data-month="april"></div> 

but there lot of html structure around divs.

now, know how select data month, e.g.: $('[data-month=february]) gets jquery object div data-month of february.

now, imagine have selected february div above, there way nth neighbour of 'february' (the div n-positions right)?

i tried using eq() function, cannot start current object. (i need start specific data-month , don't know index upfront.)

simple! use .next() twice so:

$("[data-month='february']").next().next()

a more general approach use index() find current item's index, add offset , use parent().children().eq() so:

var current = $("[data-month='february']"); var other = current.parent().children().eq(current.index() + offset);
