Yep - $("#foo > *") only grabs direct children (which is what you want). If you want to grab all descendants (children and children of children and children of children of children, etc.) then you would do: $("#foo *") > P.S. JQuery rocks... you're a god. You might actually be the god. ;) LOL... I just like to help out - glad you're enjoying jQuery. --John _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
