I'm comfortable with js, but always had trouble with js & doms... not
to mention writing it for cross-browsers compat.
I have some xml (below) that is coming from an automated process that
has no IDs or classes in it. I would like to be able to use prototype
to apply styles to it.
I'd rather not have to pre-process it with perl, java or something
else, adding the IDs or classes.
I can use the $() utility fine with nodes that have ids, but when I
try to loop over the nodes using $$() I'm just stuck.
Effectively I want to hide a bunch of the nodes and apply styles to a
few of the remaining ones... or just rebuild it as a more usable/
displayable piece of XHTML.
I want to do something like:
$$("artist").each(function(item, index) {
item.setStyle({ backgroundColor: '#900', fontSize: '12px'
});
// or even just add a class or id to the item...
});
This seems like it should be feasible - any help woudl be greatly
appreciated it.
Thanks - Peter
