Next adjacent selector (“prev + next”)

Selects all next elements matching "next" that are immediately preceded by a sibling "prev".

One important point to consider with both the next adjacent sibling selector (prev + next) and the general sibling selector (prev ~ siblings) is that the elements on either side of the combinator must share the same parent.

jQuery( "prev + next" )
version added: 1.0
Examples:

Finds all inputs that are next to a label.
