therealwesfoster Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Here's my question.. I have some text in a webpage in between < b > tags, inside of a < div >. now, the div has an ID of "div".. <div id="div"><p>bla bla bla</b><br><b>hey there</b></div> can I acces the <B> tag like this? var it = document.getElementById("div").b if not, how would I access something like that with CSS inheritance? (example, html.body.div.b) ------- Ok, that was Q number 1. Here's #2. How can I search within a HTML file? for example, if I wanted to get a certain URL location, i would search for < a href ="HERE.html">fff and would be able to store HERE in a JS variable.. I hope that makes sense.. thanks! Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/80348-solved-searching-through-htmlcss-with-javascript/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

phpQuestioner Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 <script language="javascript"> function getText() { alert(document.getElementsByTagName('font')[0].innerHTML); } </script> </head><body onload="getText()"> <font class="green">TEST TEXT</font> document.getElementsByTagName('font')[10].firstChild = will give you the 10th instance of the font tag.
