easy peasy:
set the value:
$(element).attr('kids',new_value);
and to retrieve the value:
$(element).attr('kids');

Hi all
What is the best way to attach and access my own properties to DOM
elements within the confines of jQuery?
I'm attempting to write a script which iterates through a multi-level
multi-nested ordered list. Starting from the deepest level and working
up, I want to store an accumulated value on each element - based on
the number of children each ol / li contains.
Storing the values within a .each() is working okay:
this.kids = count;
But retrieving these values is proving to be a problem - for me at
least... My JavaScript knowledge gets patchy outside basic DOM
manipulation.
If this doesn't make sense please quiz me!
Is there a better way to handle this kind of thing?
Cheers
Ollie
