Is there a way to grab the text from inside a alt tag?  I have a site
that will have tons of span tags and I need to go through all of them
searching for the alt="" attribute then grab it.


I'm using some non-jQuery javascript, so I'm sure there is an easier
way to format this than what I currently have.  Any thoughts on this
would be great.


----- html example:

<span>text here</span>
<span alt="Joe">text here</span>
<span alt="Jim">text here</span>
<span>text here</span>



----- Javascript.

// grab all spans on page.
var elem = window.opener.document.getElementsByTagName("span");

// make sure spans have alt attribute
for (var i = 0; i < elem.length; i++) {
       if (!!$(elem[i]).attr("printElement")) {

               ???? Where do I go from here?
               ..... would like to do a document.write(span element
alt value);

       }

}







Any thoughts on this would be great.
