Are you sure appending is what you want to do? Appending to an
<input> does not really make sense to me. Maybe using the after() or
before() would make more sense.
DIV before append:
<div id="some_id"></div>
DIV after append:
<div id="some_id"><input type="hidden" name="name" value="some
value" /></div>
INPUT before append:
<input name="name" id="some_id" type="text" size="35" />
INPUT after append:
<input name="name" id="some_id" type="text" size="35"><input
type="hidden" name="name" value="some value" /></input>
