Can you please explain the difference between parent() and parents() methods in jquery? : jquery mobile

Answer Posted / Anup Kumar Pandey

In jQuery, the `parent()` method returns the immediate parent element of the current set of elements, while the `parents()` method traverses up through the DOM tree to find an ancestor that matches the specified selector. The main difference is that `parent()` returns only one result if there's only one parent, whereas `parents()` may return multiple results if multiple matching ancestors are found.
