Find parent with class.

TODO: collapasable, copyable, download, etc

In JS for an event.target, how can I look at that element and search it's parents to see if one of them has a css class of air-datepicker?In JavaScript, to check if an element's parent has a specific CSS class, you can use the closest method. This method travels up the DOM tree from the current element and returns the first element that matches a given selector. If no such element exists, it returns null.

For your specific case, where you're looking to see if any of the parent elements of an event target has a CSS class of air-datepicker, you can do something like this:

// Assuming `event` is the event object you're working with
const hasAirDatepickerParent = event.target.closest('.air-datepicker');

if (hasAirDatepickerParent) {
  console.log('Found a parent with the "air-datepicker" class!', hasAirDatepickerParent);
} else {
  console.log('No parent with the "air-datepicker" class found.');
}

Here's a breakdown of how this works:

• event.target is the element that triggered the event.
• closest('.air-datepicker') searches for the nearest parent element (including the target itself) that has the air-datepicker class. The search includes the element itself and traverses up through its ancestors in the DOM tree.
• If such an element is found, closest returns it, otherwise, it returns null.
• You can then use an if statement to check if the result is truthy (an element was found) or falsy (null, meaning no such parent exists), and perform actions accordingly.
