query()). Then it replaces a placeholder in the template with the set of snippets.
var chapters = query();
for ( var i = 1; i <= 4; i++) {
chapters = chapters.add(loadhtml('snippets/Chapter' + i +
'.html'));
}
results.replaceWith(chapters);
show()

l The elements that match the selector of a script (see "results" on page1509).
l One element that matches the selector of a script that runs for "Each matched element"
(see "this" on page1425 and "Setting the scope of a script" on page924).
