The child() function is used to add the element as a child element to the parent element. This function accepts either a string ID, DOM node, or p5.Element. If this function does not contain any parameters then it returns an array of children DOM nodes.
Note: This function uses the p5.dom library. So add the following line in the head section of the index.html file.
<script language= "javascript" Â Â Â Â Â type= "text/javascript" src= "path/to/p5.dom.js" > </script> |
