Disclaimer: I have not gone through the source code myself. I'm relatively new to JavaScript and curious about some of Firebug's capabilities.
What technique is Firebug using to calculate the cascaded, programmatically-derivded CSS values for a particular element? We are writing a function to traverse upward in the DOM tree until we find the particular CSS attribute we're looking for (and we have defaults set on the html element). It seems that Firebug is doing something much more efficient than this to achieve its performance; we can see the wait time for some of the calculations on our page depending on how many levels we're moving up. We recursively call the node.parentNode until we find the attribute we're looking for, and return it to the calling function. Is there a direct method of getting these values? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Firebug" group.
