Get the content of siblings elements with jQuery?

Txt isn't a parent, and even then it has to be a direct parent ( parent() matches the immediate parent if it matches the selector), instead you need: $(". UiButton"). Click(function(){ var txt = $(this).

Closest("ul"). Siblings(". Txt").text(); }) The alternative is to go all the way up to content (via closest() ) to be safe then traverse down with find() : $(".

UiButton"). Click(function(){ var txt = $(this). Closest(".

Content"). Find(". Txt").text(); }).

. Txt isn't a parent, and even then it has to be a direct parent (.parent() matches the immediate parent if it matches the selector), instead you need: $(". UiButton").

Click(function(){ var txt = $(this). Closest("ul"). Siblings(".

Txt").text(); }); The alternative is to go all the way up to . Content (via .closest()) to be safe then traverse down with .find(): $(". UiButton").

Click(function(){ var txt = $(this). Closest(". Content").

Find(". Txt").text(); }).

Thanks Nick! This was really helpful! – Luciano Dec 20 '10 at 21:16 The reason I picked your second method, was that the ul was unnamed, I prefer to pick named components in case of structural change.

You need to go up to the wrapper and down, you can go to siblings, but in this case it will be harder. $(". UiButton").

Click(function(){ var txt = $(this). Closest('. Content').

Find('. Txt').text(); }.

1 Thanks! That solution worked for me. – Luciano Dec 20 '10 at 21:09 @Luciano: Quite alright.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
