Get Node from DOM Elements

[tom]

Can I retrieve a treeview node from the following DOM Element which is read from Treeview ?

<LI class="rtLI rtFirst" _itemTypeName="Telerik.Web.UI.RadTreeNode">

   <DIV class=rtTop jQuery1235081519640="2">

      <SPAN class=rtSp></SPAN>

      <SPAN class=rtPlus></SPAN>

         <IMG class=rtImg style="BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px" alt="" src="Images/folder.gif" align=absMiddle>

      <SPAN class=rtIn jQuery1235081519640="3">xxx yyy zzz</SPAN> 

   </DIV>

I can get the node from tree.findNodeByText("xxx yyy zzz").

The problem is, the label/text "xxx yyy zzz" is not unique.

Is there a better way to uniquely identify that treeview node giving this piece of information?

Thanks.

Hi tom,

findNodeByText returns the first node whose text matches the argument. If the text is not unique you can try assigning some unique value to your nodes and use the findNodeByValue method. There is no public API for getting a node from dom element.
