I’ve just finished documenting the Element Traversal API that is supported by Firefox 3.1. This involves several new attributes added to the DOM Element object:
childElementCount
children
firstElementChild
lastElementChild
nextElementSibling
- previousElementSibling
These make it easy to walk through a document’s elements to manipulate the element hierarchy. You can work with them in real-time, making live changes to the elements, adding new ones, and so forth.
hmm, all except last link seem to be broken
Fixed the links. Bad copy and paste in action. :)
