You can use an XPath expression to get a collection containing all the interesting nodes.

document.evaluate("//div[@id='nav']/a", document, null, XPathResult.UNORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE, null)

The above code will return a set containing all a elements that are children of the div element that has a nav id.

If you are doing this in a browser, I suggest using JQuery , then you can use a CSS-like selector that will make it pretty easy.

$('#nav a').each(function(index) {
    alert($(this).attr('id');
}
