[Javascript] Need to loop through all element in a div cross browser

[Hakan M (Backbase)]

Something like this:


var oDiv = document.getElementById('parentDiv');
if(oDiv.firstChild) { // check for children
   var oChild = oDiv.firstChild;
   while(oChild) { // run over them
     if(oChild.nodeType==1) { // element
       // oChild is a first level child of oDiv
       // Do what you want with it here
     }
     oChild = oChild.nextSibling;
   }
}


Didn't try it, but you get the point.

H
