javascript thread: find no. of layers inside nested positioned div
hi,
thanks a zillion chris..there's hope after all.
i now face a bigger problem ....
i'm working on a variation of the Tree at codeandhacks.com . I've modified the original code to handle Forms . its is at
http://www.geocities.com/mvar2001/jaytree.htm . i can retrieve the form values in IE but i have trouble in Netscape . the layers are
further subdivided into sub-layers . I have to access the Form values inside those sub-layers . I could not make much headway based
on the tip you provided. I'll be v. grateful if u can pls let me know where i can find the documentation & examples related to
fetching accessing sub-layers [values from Forms inside positioned div tags which are further nested in a positioned div] or better
still (this is going to be the height of immodesty ;-)) help me with the code to display selected checkboxes in Netscape similar to
the IE functionality.
I'm reposting this with more details regarding the script
thanks a lot, once again
:-)rk
