jQuery: selecting grandparents

Question

Is there a better way to select grandparent elements in jQuery in order to avoid this ?

$(this).parent().parent().parent().parent().parent().children(\".titl         


        

Answer 1

Using parents() and children() get the same results.

Example instead of using this :

$(this).parent().parent().parent().children(".title").fadeIn("fast");

you can use this :

$(this).parents().children(".title").fadeIn("fast");
