Hi,
> alert($('myinput').previous('div').stiptags());
Actually I think it's previous() you're having a problem with --
that's for siblings, but the div is not a sibling of 'myinput', it's
the parent of it. You want up().
Separately, you're calling stripTags() on an HTMLElement. stripTags()
is a String method. You probably wanted to put an innerHTML in there,
something along these lines (untested):
alert($('myinput').up().innerHTML.stiptags());
(No need for the selector on up() in this case, although you could put
it in.)
HTH,
