Title
Body
Is there any direct way in JavaScript or jQuery to check if an element is within another one. I'm not referring to the $(this).parent as the element I wish to find can be a random number steps lower in the tree of elements. As an example, I would like to check if < div id="THIS DIV"> would be within < div id="THIS PARENT"> : <div id="THIS_PARENT"> <div id="random"> <div id="random"> <div id="random"> <div id="THIS_DIV"> (... close all divs ...) So in pseudo code: if($("div#THIS_DIV").isWithin("div#THIS_PARENT")) ... If there isn't any direct way I'll probably do a function for this but still it's worth asking.
