jQuery's html() can set and retrieve html text whereas, prototype has no such equivalent. Prototype has only update() which can set html of an element. There is no method to retrieve html text like jQuery. However, using innerHTML, we can get and set html text.

jQuery's closest() can be replaced by prototype up() method, as per my understanding.

Thank you so much for all of your support.

I think the .html() function looks like this in prototype

To retrieve the html

$('fruits').innerHTML;
// -> '<ul id="favorite"><li>kiwi</li><li>banana</li><li>apple</li></ul>'

To change the html

$('fruits').update('kiwi, banana and apple');
// -> HTMLElement

You might want to read getOffsetParent for closest() and update for html()
