I just did something like that to detect clicks on links only within one Div tag. Used yahoo's dom and event js and spry for the tabs.
http://dev.besavvy.com/Spry_P1_4_1214/samples/tabbedpanels/tabbed_panel_samp le.cfm The guts are: function clickHandler(e) { var elTarget = YAHOO.util.Event.getTarget(e); while (elTarget.id != "TabbedPanels1") { if(elTarget.nodeName.toUpperCase() == "A") { if(elTarget.href.indexOf('dev.besavvy.com') != -1) { Spry.Utils.updateContent('apDiv1',elTarget); YAHOO.util.Event.preventDefault(e); break; } else { break; } } else { elTarget = elTarget.parentNode; } } } YAHOO.example.init = function() { YAHOO.util.Event.on(YAHOO.util.Dom.getElementsByClassName('joshua', 'div')[0], "click", clickHandler); } Joshua Cyr Savvy Software 866.870.6358 www.besavvy.com -----Original Message----- From: Ian Skinner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 20, 2006 3:47 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: SOT: JavaScript question. I don't know how getElementsByTag() differs from getElementsByTagName, but you can call the later on a node. nodes = getElementById('yourdiv').getElementsByTagName('p'); Thanks, I thought I tried something like this, but I will give it another go. getElementsByTag() differs from getElementsByTagName() in that the former is my mistyping of the latter! :-) I am so waiting for that "type what I meant to type" spell checker! -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA --------- | 1 | | --------- Binary Soduko | | | --------- "C code.
