A d3.select… equivalent to jQuery.children()

Question

I\'m using d3 to append some elements on enter() and then update them later. However, the next time i try to select those elements the selection is much larger than the orig

Answer 1

Like says Lars, there is no equivalent to 'children()' method in D3, but here left a little extension to d3.selection prototype i wrote. I hope must help you (so late).

d3.selection.prototype.children = function(d){
    var that = this.node();
    return this
        .selectAll(d)
        .filter(function(){ return that == this.parentNode; });
};
