Select the children of an element
Getting the children of a DOM element.
Selecting the children of an element with DOM methods:
var el = document.querySelector('div');
var children = el.childNodes,
number_of_children = children.length;
for (var i=0; i<number_of_children; i++)
console.log(children[i].innerHTML);
There are faster methods for only fetching the first or last child of an element:
var firstChild = el.firstChild;
var lastChild = el.lastChild;
