This has actually been discussed quite a bit on this list, in various
contexts - for example see

querySelector() and querySelectorAll() methods are exciting features, but they
do not allow select _immediate_ children of reference element.
To address this lack, we could use following syntax:
var divs = refElement.querySelectorAll(' DIV');
Here 'divs' variable contains list of DIV
