siblings

I have an element grabbed from document.getElementById('the_id') . How can I get its next sibling and hide it? I tried this but it didn't work: elem.nextSibling.style.display = 'none'; Firebug error was elem.nextSibling.style is undefined . Russ Cam it's because Firefox considers the whitespace between element nodes to be text nodes (whereas IE does not) and therefore using .nextSibling on an element gets that text node in Firefox. It's useful to have a function to use to get the next element node. Something like this /* Credit to John Resig for this function taken from Pro JavaScript

I've got this Oracle code structure I'm trying to convert to SQL Server 2008 ( Note: I have used generic names, enclosed column names and table names within square brackets '[]', and done some formatting to make the code more readable) : SELECT [col#1], [col#2], [col#3], ..., [col#n], [LEVEL] FROM (SELECT [col#1], [col#2], [col#3], ..., [col#n] FROM [TABLE_1] WHERE ... ) CONNECT BY PRIOR [col#1] = [col#2] START WITH [col#2] IS NULL ORDER SIBLINGS BY [col#3] What is the SQL Server equivalent template of the above code? Specifically, I'm struggling with the LEVEL , and 'ORDER SIBLINGS BY' Oracle

I have following HTML Structure: I am trying to build a robust method to extract second color digest element since there will be many of these tag within the DOM. <table> <tbody> <tr bgcolor="#AAAAAA"> <tr> <tr> <tr> <tr> <td>Color Digest </td> <td>AgArAQICGQMVBBwTIRQHIwg0GUMURAZTBWQJcwV0AoEDAQ </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Color Digest </td> <td>2,43,2,25,21,28,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,33,7,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,25,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,20,6,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,9,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0

In my script there are three divs. I want to display div with class="ab" when I hover on first line and display div with class="abc" , when hover on second line. Otherwise I want to display div with class="a" by default. But it never displays the div with class="a" . .abc,.ab { display: none; } #f:hover ~ .ab { display: block; } #f:hover ~ .abc,.a { display: none; } #s:hover ~ .abc { display: block; } #s:hover ~ .ab,.a { display: none; } <a id="f">Show First content!</a> <br/> <a id="s">Show Second content!!</a> <div class="a">Default Content</div> <div class="ab">First content</div> <div

To give a simplified example, I've got the following block repeated on the page lots of times (it's dynamically generated): <div class="box"> <div class="something1"></div> <div class="something2"> <a class="mylink">My link</a> </div> </div> When clicked, I can get to the parent of the link with: $(".mylink").click(function() { $(this).parents(".box").fadeOut("fast"); }); However... I need to get to the <div class="something1"> of that particular parent. Basically, can someone tell me how to refer to a higher-level sibling without being able to refer to it directly? Let's call it big brother.

Example: <div id="big"> </div> <div class="small"> </div> <div class="small"> </div> <div class="small"> </div> <div class="small"> </div> <div class="small"> </div> <!-- ...and so on --> "#big" is positioned absolutely behind a portion of the ".small"s, but is not a parent element. I have been doing this: var smallArray = []; var $big = $('#big'); var $bigPos = $big.offset(); $('div.small').each(function() { var $this = $(this); var $thisPos = $this.offset(); if( $thisPos.left >= $bigPos.left && $thisPos.left <= $bigPos.left+$big.outerWidth() && $thisPos.top >= $bigPos.top && $thisPos.top <=

If I have a header tag <h1 class="hc-reform">title</h1> h1.hc-reform{ float:left; font-size:30px; color:#0e73bb; font-weight:bold; margin:10px 0px; } and after that I have a paragraph <p>stuff here</p> . How can I ensure using CSS that every <p> tag that follows the h1.hc-reform to use: clear:both; would that be: h1.hc-reform > p{ clear:both; } for some reason that's not working. This is called the adjacent sibling selector, and it is represented by a plus sign... h1.hc-reform + p { clear:both; } Note: this is not supported in IE6 or older. You can use the sibling selector ~ : h1.hc-reform ~ p
