Find All Span Tags

[Eric Cota]

I have a page which has multiple span tags, I would like a javascript
function that can look at each of these span tags for me. Depending
on the what the user is doing there could be a different number of
span tags so I don't want to hard code them.

Thanks

Eric

var spans;
if (document.all) {
spans = document.all.ta gs('span');
}
else if (document.getEl ementsByTagName ) {
spans = document.getEle mentsByTagName( 'span');
}
if (spans) {
// do something with it
}
