List all HTML-element in document

[kjellbrandes]

Hi all,

I'm looking for an alternate way to document.all to list all
HTML-elements on a webpage.

I'm trying to get all IDs on a page that starts with specific letters,
ie: <div class='classname' id='MEIT_Start'.....

I wan't to build an array of items starting with 'MEIT_'

I have tried to use getElementByID but no succes

suggestions??

reg.

How about?

document.getElementsByTagName("*");

Then you can loop through the elements returned by the above and test
the ID property for each to see if it begins with whatever prefix you wish.
