Haha...nice title? ;)
I have this list structure and when the page loads I reveal the active
page...all the other pieces are revealed when you click. Everything
works great except this one detail.
I need to run a check (a filter?) to see if the active list element
exists in a 'secondary' list (nested ul). If it does, I need to
activate another piece of code to display the secondary list titles
(and this is working as well). Just need to run a check so I know when
to run this extra code.
I can get the parent of the active list element and even the html
within it no problem...but I actually need to go up an additional
parent or two (ul's) so I can get the code for the entire section and
then filter to see if it is in fact it has the secondary pieces. This
is the list...
<ul id='section-id-16' class='section-menu'>
<li class='section-title section-primary'><span class='blank-title'
id='t2'>// Editorial</span>
<ul>
<li class='section-title section-tag section-secondary'><span
class='blank-tag'>Secondary List Title</span>
<ul>
<li class='section-page active'><a href='/newby-layout/'>Newby Layout</
a></li>
<li class='section-page'><a href='/notes/'>Notes</a></li>
<li class='section-page'><a href='/qs-for-dan/'>Q's for Dan</a></li>
<li class='section-page'><a href='/project/print/testing-
formats/'>Testing Formats</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li class='section-title section-tag section-secondary'><span
class='blank-tag' id='Herewerare'>Herewerare</span>
<ul>
<li class='section-page'><a href='/newest-year/'
class='herewerare'>Newest Year</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
Etc...
I've tried $('li.active').parent() and $('li.active').parents() (and
tons of variations) but I just can not get the html beyond the first
parent. I'm not showing the full index here...it's quite long...but it
does validate and check out just fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks
