Create a Parent div for multiple child divs - Jquery

My code goes like this,

<div class="sExample">
    <div class="child1 one">...</div>
    <div class="child2 one">...</div>

    <table>...</table>
    <div class="child3">...</div>
</div>

I want to include a parent div only for the .child1 and .child2 targeting class .one. I tried the jQuery .wrap method, but its adding parent div for each items.

Please help me do this.

Use this for wrap each element in it own container:

$('.one').wrap('<div></div>');

Why not use appendTo() to move the element. Also, if possible, try using an id for the parent div .sExample it would be easier to manipulate in code. 

document.getElementsByClassName('.child1 .one')[0].appendTo(document.getElementsByClassName('.sExample')[0])

You would probably have to iterate over your classes if you have multiple classes with the same name. Once again, I suggest moving to ids if you can.

Assuming you want the result to look like this:

<div class="sExample">
    <div>
        <div class="child1 one">...</div>
        <div class="child2 one">...</div>
    </div>

    <table>...</table>
    <div class="child3">...</div>
</div>

Use wrapAll() instead of wrap():

$('.one').wrapAll('<div>');
