I am developing a function to find a particular element within another element identifier (similar to getElementById but that applies to any other element) ... Because this throws me arror: var ancestor = document.getElementById('divAncestor');var child = ancestor.getElementById('divChild'); I know, HTML specifies that ids must be unique but reality proves that often running scripts that can have items with the same ids. So, thats the reason why I'm not simply calling the child like this: var ancestor = document.getElementById('divChild'); The first option was to add this function to each HTML element, or at least the divs (because that's what interests me identify). The second, and is the one I prefer, is to add a method to the document object and call from there by passing the ID of the father and son as parameters. Is this possible?Thanks for your time.

Hi! I'm having a trouble with my mobile plugin: it shows me the new elements added by scripting with a different charset of the page. E.g. I can read "cuadrúpedo" but the same word in my plugin show "cuadr¡pedo".I tryed writing the next line to the beginning of my plugin, but it didn't work:Code: document.getElementsByTagName("html")[0].setAttribute("lang", "es"); Then, I wrote a "converter function" which replaces the special characters with unicode, like the next line, bub it didn't work.Code: str.replace( /ú/g, "/xfa־" ); What can I do?
