[jQuery] get top most parent

[chitgoks]

hi, i am stumped so i am posting it here. no luck searching google for
many hours

this is my html code

div id=firstpane class=menu_list !--Code for menu starts here--

p id=header1 class=menu_headHeader-1/p
div class=menu_body
a href=#Link-1/a
a href=#Link-2/a
a href=#Link-3/a
/div

p id=header2 class=menu_headHeader-2/p
div id=header2_menubody class=menu_body

div id=pane class=menu_list
p id=submenu class=menu_headSub-Menu/p
div class=menu_body
a href=#Sub Link-1/a
a href=#Sub Link-2/a
a href=#Sub Link-3/a
/div
/div

a href=#Link-1/a
a href=#Link-2/a
a href=#Link-3/a
/div

p id=header3 class=menu_headHeader-3/p
div class=menu_body
a href=#Link-1/a
a href=#Link-2/a
a href=#Link-3/a
   /div
/div  !--Code for menu ends here--

if i have access to the object id header2 how can i get access to
id=submenu ?
i tried header2obj.children('.menu_head') but it doesnt work. thanks

[jQuery] get all children and subchildren

[chitgoks]

how would you write the code to get all children and sub-children that
are of class menu_head and menu_body?
example this would be my html

p id=header2 class=menu_headHeader-2/p
div id=header2_menubody class=menu_body

div id=pane class=menu_list
p id=submenu class=menu_headSub-Menu/p
div id=submenu_menubody class=menu_body
a id=submenu_sublink1 href=#Sub 
Link-1/a
a id=submenu_sublink2 href=#Sub 
Link-2/a
a id=submenu_sublink3 href=#Sub 
Link-3/a
/div
/div

a id=header2_link1 href=#Link-1/a
a id=header2_link2 href=#Link-2/a
a id=header2_link3 href=#Link-3/a
/div

this was what i tried
 $('#header2').children('.menu_head') and $('header2').children
('.menu_body') but they dont work

if i use $('$header2').children() it will only give me the div with id
pane

anyone got ideas? thanks

[jQuery] Re: get top most parent

i managed to get the top most parent regardless which menu item is
clicked using this code

$('#ID_HERE').parents('div.menu_body').prev($('#ID_HERE').parents
('div.menu_body').size()-1)

[jQuery] Re: get all children and subchildren

by the way, the sample html above is only 1 sub level. i am going to
place in a lot of sub-sub menus so my issue is how to traverse to all
children way down the tree that have the p tag and class menu_head
