I use jQuery most of the time, so I am having a bit of trouble with the following (simple) javascript:

I want to dismiss(hide) the parent element of a p tag when clicking on it:

HTML:

<div class=parent>

     <p id=dismiss onclick=dismiss();>dismiss this box</p>

</div>

JS:

function dismiss(){

    document.getElementById('dismiss').pDoc.parentNode.style.display='none';

};

Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/CUqmn/3/

But this is not working. What would be the correct code?

Thanks

function dismiss(){

      document.getElementById('dismiss').parentNode.style.display='none';

};

BTW, as jsfiddle wrap javascript code in loader function, use no wrap in left select box to get it work on jsfiddle.
