javascript - Skip first N elements in JQuery

Question

I would like to know, how can I skip first N elements in JQuery. Something like this:

<div id="test">
    <div>1</div>
    <div>2</div>
    <div>3</div>
    <div>4</div>
    ...
</div>

$('#test > div').skip(2)

Should return

<div>3</div>
<div>4</div>
...

I know I can just use :not(:first-child):not(:first-child + div)... selector N times, but is there a better way?

Answer 1

jQuery has a gt selector. (Greater than).

$('#test > div:gt(1)')

Or you can use the slice function

$('#test > div').slice(2)
