Objective, Primary [Text Block] rr_ObjectivePrimaryTextBlock The investment objectives of the Fund are capital appreciation and income.
Expense [Heading] rr_ExpenseHeading FUND FEES AND EXPENSES
Expense Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseNarrativeTextBlock The tables below describe the sales charges, fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and an eligible group of related investors purchase, or agree to purchase in the future, $25,000 or more in shares of the Fund or other funds in the Prudential Investments family of funds. More information about these discounts is available from your financial professional and is explained in Reducing or Waiving Class A's and Class C’s Sales Charges on page 21 of the Fund's Prospectus and in Rights of Accumulation on page 42 of the Fund's Statement of Additional Information (SAI).

Portfolio Turnover [Heading] rr_PortfolioTurnoverHeading Portfolio Turnover.
Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund's performance. During the Fund's most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 51% of the average value of its portfolio.
Portfolio Turnover, Rate rr_PortfolioTurnoverRate 51.00%

Expense Example [Heading] rr_ExpenseExampleHeading Example.
Expense Example Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock The following hypothetical example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. It assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then, except as indicated, redeem all your shares at the end of those periods. It assumes a 5% return on your investment each year, that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same (except that fee waivers or reimbursements, if any, are only reflected in the 1-Year figures) and that all dividends and distributions are reinvested. Your actual costs may be higher or lower.

Strategy [Heading] rr_StrategyHeading INVESTMENTS, RISKS AND PERFORMANCE

Principal Investment Strategies.
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing, under normal conditions, at least 80% of its investable assets in the equity and equity-related securities of companies that the subadviser expects to experience dividend growth, that is, companies that currently pay dividends and are expected to increase them. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its investable assets in the equity and equity-related securities of companies that are not currently paying dividends, but are expected by the subadviser to begin paying them in the future. The subadviser generally seeks to identify companies that it believes may be able to sustain and/or grow their dividends over time. Generally, these companies may, in the subadviser’s opinion, tend to have one or more of the following characteristics:
  • Strong and/or rising free cash flow
  • Strong credit profile
  • Rising or above average return on invested capital or return on equity, or
  • Company management demonstrates a willingness to return capital to shareholders
The Fund's investments will primarily be in large-cap companies, defined as those companies with a market capitalization equal to or greater than $1 billion, although the Fund may invest in issuers of all capitalization ranges. While the Fund intends primarily to be invested in the securities of US issuers, the Fund may invest up to 50% of its total assets in foreign securities, which may include emerging markets.

Equity and equity-related securities include common stocks, securities convertible or exchangeable for common stock or the cash value of common stock, preferred stocks, warrants and rights that can be exercised to obtain stock, investments in various types of business ventures including partnerships and business development companies, securities of real estate investment trusts (REITs) and income and royalty trusts, and other similar securities.

The term “investable assets” refers to the Fund’s net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes. The Fund’s investable assets will be less than its total assets to the extent that it has borrowed money for non-investment purposes, such as to meet anticipated redemptions.
Risk [Heading] rr_RiskHeading Principal Risks.
Risk Narrative [Text Block] rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock All investments have risks to some degree. An investment in the Fund is not guaranteed to achieve its investment objective; is not a deposit with a bank; is not insured, endorsed or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency; and is subject to investment risks, including possible loss of your original investment.

Market Risk. Securities markets may be volatile and the market prices of the Fund’s securities may decline. Securities fluctuate in price based on changes in an issuer’s financial condition and overall market and economic conditions. If the market prices of the securities owned by the Fund fall, the value of your investment in the Fund will decline.

Market Capitalization Risk. The Fund may invest in companies of any market capitalization. Generally, the stock prices of small- and medium-sized companies are less stable than the prices of large company stocks and may present greater risks. Large capitalization companies as a group could fall out of favor with the market, causing the Fund to underperform compared to investments that focus on smaller capitalized companies.

Management Risk. The value of your investment may decrease if judgments by the subadviser about the attractiveness, value or market trends affecting a particular security, industry or sector or about market movements are incorrect.

Dividend Risk. There is no guarantee that the issuers of the stocks held by the Fund will declare dividends in the future or that, if dividends are declared, they will remain at their current levels or increase over time. High-dividend stocks may not experience high earnings growth or capital appreciation. The Fund’s performance during a broad market advance could suffer because dividend paying stocks may not experience the same capital appreciation as non-dividend paying stocks.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investments are greater for investments in emerging markets. Emerging market countries typically have economic and political systems that are less fully developed, and can be expected to be less stable, than those of more developed countries. For example, the economies of such countries can be subject to rapid and unpredictable rates of inflation or deflation. Low trading volumes may result in a lack of liquidity and price volatility. Emerging market countries may have policies that restrict investment by non-US investors, or that prevent non-US investors from withdrawing their money at will.

Equity and Equity-Related Securities Risks. The value of a particular security could go down and you could lose money. In addition to an individual security losing value, the value of the equity markets or a sector in which the Fund invests could go down. The Fund's holdings can vary significantly from broad market indexes and the performance of the Fund can deviate from the performance of these indexes. Different parts of a market can react differently to adverse issuer, market, regulatory, political and economic developments.

Large Capitalization Company Risk. Companies with large market capitalizations go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. Larger companies tend to be less volatile than companies with smaller market capitalizations. In exchange for this potentially lower risk, the Fund's value may not rise or fall as much as the value of funds that emphasize companies with smaller market capitalizations.

Foreign Securities Risk. The Fund’s investments in securities of foreign issuers or issuers with significant exposure to foreign markets involve additional risk. Foreign countries in which the Fund may invest may have markets that are less liquid, less regulated and more volatile than US markets. The value of the Fund’s investments may decline because of factors affecting the particular issuer as well as foreign markets and issuers generally, such as unfavorable government actions, and political or financial instability. Lack of information may also affect the value of these securities.

Market Events Risk. Events in the financial markets have resulted in, and may continue to result in, an unusually high degree of volatility, both in foreign and US markets. This market volatility, in addition to reduced liquidity in credit and fixed-income markets, may adversely affect issuers worldwide. Furthermore, the impact of policy and legislative changes in the US and other countries may not be fully known for some time. This environment could make identifying investment risks and opportunities especially difficult for the subadviser.

Risk of Increase in Expenses. Your actual cost of investing in the Fund may be higher than the expenses shown in the expense table for a variety of reasons. For example, expense ratios may be higher than those shown if average net assets decrease. Net assets are more likely to decrease and Fund expense ratios are more likely to increase when markets are volatile. Active and frequent trading of Fund securities can increase expenses.

More information about the risks of investing in the Fund appears in the section of the Prospectus entitled “More Information About the Fund’s Principal and Non-Principal Investment Strategies, Investments and Risks.”

[1] The manager has contractually agreed through November 30, 2017 to limit net annual Fund operating expenses (exclusive of distribution and service (12b-1) fees, taxes, interest, brokerage, extraordinary and certain other expenses) of each class of shares of the Fund to .99% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Separately, the distributor has contractually agreed through November 30, 2017 to reduce its distribution and service (12b-1) fees for Class A shares to .25% of the average daily net assets of the Class A shares. These waivers may not be terminated prior to November 30, 2017 without the prior approval of the Fund's Board of Trustees.
[2] These annual total returns do not include deductions for sales charges. If the sales charges were included, the annual total returns would be lower than those shown. Without the distribution and service (12b-1) fee waiver, the annual returns would have been lower, too. The total return of the Fund's Class A shares from January 1, 2016 through June 30, 2016 was 4.70%.
