Hi, Consider the following html :
<div id="main"> <div> <p/> <p/> <p> <h2> target node </h2> </p> </div> </div> Starting from the h2 node, I want to find its closest parent with an id, in this case the div with id="main". I also want to store the index position of all of the parents of the target. In this case that would be 0 (for the div right under "main") and 2 (for the third <p>) How can I do that using jQuery ? I hope what I ask is clear enough.
