[jQuery] Problem traversing up list
Hello there, after too much sarching I have almost give it up with the
following.
I have a list with another list nested:
ul
li id=item1Item 1
ul
li id=item1-1
Item 1 - 1
/li
li id=item1-2
Item 1 - 2
/li
/ul
/li
/ul
Let's say I know the ID of item1-2 or item1-1 how can I get the id of the
li (item1)?
I have tried with:
alert($('#item1-1').parentNode().id)
But it gaves me an error, maybe just because it is an aberration...
Re: [jQuery] Problem traversing up list
It returns an empty string, so it alerts, but nothing...
I will show you all the code:
First I get the id of the element via URL with the URL param plugin:
(It works, if I do an alert it returns the right stuff)
var target = $.url.param(target);
alert($(#+target).parent().attr('id'));
This alerts nothing !!

You don't need to use .parentNode() (vanilla DOM) but .parent() (jQuery flavor).
Then you can access any attribute using .attr().
So instead try : $('#item1-1').parent().attr('id')
This should tadaaa.

Re: [jQuery] Problem traversing up list
Well, that must mean that the parent has no id, which is exactly the case :
ul
li id=item1Item 1 = $('#item1-1').parent().parent()
ul = $('#item1-1').parent()
li id=item1-1 = $('#item1-1')
Item 1 - 1
/li
li id=item1-2
Item 1 - 2
/li
/ul
/li
/ul
Or you can do this in a better way :
$('#item1-1').parents('li:first').attr('id')
