Select all li's but not children
- by fire
I have this code:
$li = $("li", this)
Which is selecting all of the li's in my code. This works fine however I want $li to exclude the li's that are within a submenu.
<ul id="navigation">
<li><a href="#">blah 1</a></li>
<ul id="subnav">
<li><a href="#">sub 1</a></li>
<li><a href="#">sub 2</a></li>
<li><a href="#">sub 3</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="#">blah 2</a></li>
<li><a href="#">blah 3</a></li>
<li><a href="#">blah 4</a></li>
<li><a href="#">blah 5</a></li>
</ul>
So $li would only reference the blah's not the sub's.
I thought it was something like:
$li = $("li", this).parents()
But this doesn't do what I want.
