REQ: help with event and inner tag.

[.]

TIA for your help with is quick question:

document.onkeyup=test;
document.onmousedown=test;

function test(evt){
myEvent=window.event?event.srcElement:evt.target;
alert(myEvent.href);
}

Works great for a link like:
<a href="http://www.google.com">Google</a>
The alert properly shows http://www.google.com.

However this:
<a href="http://www.google.com"><i>Google</i></a>
returns undefined. How can i get the href?

The <i> and it's placement is not my doing, I'm forced to deal with
it.

Thanks much,

Rick

Just found my answer on msdn.com, here it is:

In IE
alert(myEvent.parentElement.href);

In Mozilla
alert(myEvent.parentNode.href);
