That worked! Perfect! Thanks!
I did get an idiom to work but it was returning too many recursive
elements:
var $v = $("[EMAIL PROTECTED] :first-child").parents();
$v.show();
I knew there had to be something better. I did try parent and parents
but I guess I didn't understand that .parents(filter) will continue to
propapate upward! That's perfect!
Thanks again
