3 lines of code want to display all tags

[Mike Hnatt]

for(var i=0;i<document. all.elements.le ngth;i++){
alert(document. forms[0].elements[i].id);
}

This code displays the ids of only controls in a form, but I'd like it to
display ALL items. For example, not just the ids of buttons, inputs, etc,
but any <span> elements as well. Is there something I could replace with
the "elements"? I tried tags but that doesn't work either.

Thanks!
Mike

I figured it out. Here is the code:

I figured it out. Here is the code:

for(var i=0;i<document. all.length;i++) {
alert(document. all[i].id);
}

This is deprecated and does not work in every browser.
You should try a better way for this:

var all=document.ge tElementsByTagN ame("*");

for(var i=0; i<all.length; i++)
alert(all[i].id);
