title: jQuery what instead $(this).parent().children()
body: <p>Just a quick example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;p&gt;
      &lt;span class="example"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
      &lt;input type="text" name="e_name" id="e_id /&gt;
  &lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
      $('input').click(function(){
          $(this).parent().children('span').text('Suprise!');
      }
  &lt;/script&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What can I use instead parent().children()? </p>
  
  <p>I think it's a bit inelegant piece of code.
  Is any function i.e : $(this).fun('span').text('just better'); ??</p>
