closest(selector)
For each element in a set, this function gets the first element that matches the selector by
testing the element itself and traversing up through its ancestors in the DOM tree.
selector
A String containing an HTML tag (without the angle brackets, <>).
Examples
The following script looks up all table rows in the template that contain an <input> element.
query("input").closest("tr");
This code gets the closest 'parent' row for each element that matches the selector of the script
(collected in the results object):
results.closest("tr");
The rows could be colored red within the same statement:
results.closest("tr").css('background-color','red');
css()
Gets the value of a style property for the first element in the set of HTML elements that match
the selector of the script or of another query in the template (see "query()" on page1158), or
sets one or more CSS properties for every element in the set.
css(styleName) : String
Returns the value of the specified CSS property.
propertyName
String; the name of the CSS property.
Examples
This script stores the text color of the results (the HTML elements that match the selector of the
script) in a variable.
var textcolor = results.css("color");
