Accessing items at deeper levels using children() in jQuery
- by favo
Hi,
I want to access a simple button in an unknown nested level of a container.
Using container.children('button') allows me to access buttons in the first level, i.e.:
<div>
<button>test</button>
</div>
Trying to use the same with the following construct:
<div>
<div>
<button>test</button>
</div>
</div>
.. fails, because the button is not a direct children. I could use element.children().children('button') but the depth of the button can change and this feels too strange.
I can also write my own function to iterate thru all children to find what I need, but I guess jQuery does already have selectors for this.
So the question is:
How can I access children in an unknown depth using jQuery selectors?
Thank you all in advance for your feedback!
