Why my (this).closest('.row').find('.col-lg-10').remove(); doesn't work and sending me errors in log?

<div class="row section-first">
    <div class="col-lg-2 text-center text-grayer my-auto p-2">
        <p class="h6">Newbie</p>
        <p class="h5">

This is my HTML And I have here this button

<button class="btn btn-info btn-sm pointer post-edit">
                        Edytuj Post
                    </button>

It it scripted in jquery like this:

$(document).on('click', 'button.post-edit', function(e){
                    e.preventDefault();
                    (this).closest('.row').find('.col-lg-10').remove();
                });

Uncaught TypeError: this.closest(...).find is not a function
    at HTMLButtonElement.<anonymous> (voluptas-eum-voluptatem-soluta-numquam-ipsum-totam-est:293)
    at HTMLDocument.dispatch (jquery.js:3)
    at HTMLDocument.q.handle (jquery.js:3)

It works when it is like (this).closest('.row').remove(); It deletes whole row, but it's not what I intend to do.

col-lg-10 containing content in this post have to be deleted.

So I try using (this).closest('.row').find('.col-lg-10').remove(); but as I said this doesn't work and I don't know why, because we go first to .row by traversing UP in DOM by closest and then down by find to col-lg-10

What is wrong here?

• change it to $(this).closest('.row').find('.col-lg-10').remove(); – Özgür Yalçın Commented Aug 21, 2017 at 17:47
• 5 hah, haha. that .closest isn't jQuery, it's the one that browsers now provide. you've forgotten a $ at the start of that line. dom nodes don't have a .find method. They do however have a querySelector method. – Kevin B Commented Aug 21, 2017 at 17:47
• (this).closest('.row').find('.col-lg-10').remove(); need to be $(this).closest('.row').find('.col-lg-10').remove();.Seems like TYPO mistake – Death-is-the-real-truth Commented Aug 21, 2017 at 17:47
• 2 If there's only one col-lg-10 element to remove, you can do it without jQuery like this: this.closest('.row').querySelector('.col-lg-10').remove() – spanky Commented Aug 21, 2017 at 17:51

As noted in the question ments, you're missing the jQuery identifier.

Change this:

(this).closest('.row').find('.col-lg-10').remove();

To this:

$(this).closest('.row').find('.col-lg-10').remove();
