Title
Body
I am in the process of implementing jQuery, and taking out Prototype libraries in my codebase, and I am wondering if you could give me the best way to implement this functionality in jQuery. I am familiar with the jQuery ancestor > descendant syntax, but just want to check if an element is a descendant by true of false, like the code below: can someone give me the most efficient jQuery solution for this ? <div id="australopithecus"> <div id="homo-herectus"> <div id="homo-sapiens"></div> </div> </div> $('homo-sapiens').descendantOf('australopithecus'); // -> true $('homo-herectus').descendantOf('homo-sapiens'); // -> false
