Ok, I'm cracking up due to lack of food or something http://202.49.89.140/test.html
This works, it's a stripped implementation of the test page. The code in the context of my page, slightly modified doesn't. var el = $(this._relative); alert(el.id); alert(el.parentNode.parentNode.classNames()); alert(el.up(1).classNames()); The first alert, returns the expected element's id. The grandparent of the element doesn't have an Id, so I've switched to using its className to identify it. The second alert returns the correct class name. The third alert errors: IE: Object doesn't support this property or method Firefox: Error: Selector.findElement is not a function Source File: http://localhost:1694/Listz/Javascript/prototype.js Line: 1435 What else should I check?
