title: Jquery - APPEND is not a function
body: <p>I am looking to find the html in first header in the page and add some html to it. Seems pretty simple but it is not working. I appreciate any help I can get. Thanks!</p>
  
  <pre><code>var str = $('h1:first').html();
  $('h1:first').html(str.append("(&lt;a class="dialogM" href="/alerts/alert1.html" title="Medical"&gt;&lt;img src="/images/alert1.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;)"));
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The error it is giving is - "TypeError: str.append is not a function"</p>
