Access the object of appended element

I'm trying to access the elements that are appended by a library that I use in my code, but I can't access them. I have this line in my html.

<div class="bonds" id="original" style="display:block;"></div>

The library that I use will append some elements in here. So from the DOM inspector, it shows something like this.

<div class="bonds" id="original" style="display:block;">
    <!-- append start -->
    <div class="FL-main fieldsLinker">
        <div class="FL-left">
            <select></select>
            <ul>
                <li data-offset="0"></li>
                <li data-offset="1"></li>
                <li data-offset="2"></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
    </div>
    <!-- append ended -->
</div>

I'm trying to access the <ul></ul> element using the methods below but nothing works.

  1. $('#original').children().children().children();

  2. var original = $('#original').find('ul');

My goal is to append <span class="icon-close"></span> in each of <li></li> element when the page is loaded.

You could use JQuery find method to find the ul and loop over it's children. Add your script at the end of all scripts. (library scripts).

$('#original').find('ul li').each(function(i) {
   $(this).append('<span class="icon-close"></span>');
});
