Live demo: Jquery after and insertAfter example example on jsbin.com
Both do the same task, insert text or html after every selected elements but syntax is quite different.
Syntax for after():
| 
					 1 2 3 4 5  | 
						$("selectors").after("element to be inserted") ; Example : $("div").after("  | 
					
inserting using after
| 
					 1 2 3  | 
						");  | 
					
Syntax for insertAfter() :
| 
					 1 2 3 4 5  | 
						$("element to be inserted") .insertAfter("div"); Example: $("  | 
					
inserting using insertAfter
| 
					 1 2 3  | 
						").insertAfter("div");  | 
					
Let’s understand with the help of example:
		| 
					 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43  |
