How to append   to the end of the last tag with jQuery? For example, my html would be something like this:

<div>
    <p>line1</p>
    <p>line2</p>  
</div>  

I want the end result to be:

<div>
    <p>line1</p>
    <p>line2 &nbsp;</p>  
</div>

• javascript
• jquery
• html

• You might want to consider just using the :last-child class (not available in ie6, ie7, ie8, available in ie9 and good browsers) and just adding some slight right-margin instead of adding content. – Kzqai Commented Jul 30, 2013 at 18:59
