textnode

Is there anyway to assign an id to a textNode and then retrieve that text node via that id? I've tried several different ways and keep getting errors saying cannot get property of null. My code looks something like this... var myDiv = document.createdElement('div'); myDiv.id = "textContainer"; var textNode = document.createdTextNode("some text"); textNode.id = "descriptionText"; myDiv.appendChild(textNode); Works fine to this point; it displays on the page. Later I try to modify that text node and that's where I'm getting the errors. var tempNode = document.getElementById(descriptionText);

I want to create an array of all the html elements within a div that contain text strings, such as <p>some string</p>. I don't want to get hold of the strings, I want the array items to be the elements (in the example, would be the p node).

I've been using some buttons for a while now that have a depressed effect as they are clicked using position relative and a top: 1px in the :active pseudo-class.

I did a bit of fiddling to make sure the inner-most element covered the whole button and discovered that the issue remained. If I click right at the top of the text then the link jumps down (firing the mousedown event) and then back up (firing the mouseup event) but the click does not occur. If I

How can I use php to remove tags with empty text node? For instance, <div class="box"></div> remove <a href="#"></a> remove <p><a href="#"></a></p> remove <span style="..."></span> remove But I want to keep the tag with text node like this, <a href="#">link</a> keep Edit: I want to remove something messy like this too, <p><strong><a href="http://xx.org.uk/dartmoor-arts"></a></strong></p> <p><strong><a href="http://xx.org.uk/depw"></a></strong></p> <p><strong><a href="http://xx.org.uk/devon-guild-of-craftsmen"></a></strong></p> I tested both regex below, $content = preg_replace('!<(.*?)[^>]*>\s
