G,
I tried a quick demo of what you were trying to accomplish and I think I
have something that might work. I'm still pretty new around here, but I hope
this helps.
$(document).ready(function(){
var cnt = $('#errList li:visible').size();
alert(cnt);
});
If someone knows a better way, I'd love to learn.
