I'm trying to crete 3 HTML collections containing all my links on a page, so I can attach 3 separate function to each categories of links. My first HTML collection is "header links", the second is "footer links" and the third is "all other links". I need to attach link tracking functions and other elements as well.
Creating the first two collections is fairly easy as I can do document.getElementById('header'); and document.getElementById('footer'); and then this.getElementsByTagName('a'); However, getting the third collection of "all other links" is a bit more tricky. There isn't a clean div that contains just the "middle" of the page, and there are links outside the header and footer that are also difficult to single out. I wish I could do something like allLinks = document.linnks, and then filter out of that all the links already present in the first and second HTML collections.
Any way to do that ? Ideally I would like to avoid loading more libraries and pure JS would be welcome
Thanks !
