> Hi,
>
> I'm just starting experimentation with javascript, here is an attached
html file to illustrate my post, the idea is to have a simple DOM compliant
manipulable menu base on <ul> and <li> tags.
> I've defined 2 function:
>     hideChilds(elm) wich take an elements and hide all the child tags
elements
>     showChilds(elm) that does the oposite of hideChilds
>
> Currently 2 problems occurs:
>     -I'm unable to replace accurately the onclick event of the 'elm'
parameters of my functions
>     -clicking on a child <li> fire onclick of parent <li>
>
> so two questions:
>     -how can I set the elm.onclick property (should I call it a
property???) to call the oposite function?
>     -how can I avoid onclick event of parents elements (try clicking on a
submenu item)
>
> I've added an alert at the end of each functions as checking purpose
> I've commented my last instruction that reaffect the elm.onclick property
>
> Thanks alot for any hint
