I have the following HTML page:



<html>
<head>
<script type=text/javascript src=JavaScript/Menu.js></script>
</head>
<body>
<ul>
<li><a onclick=GetIndex(this)>One</a></li>
<li><a onclick=GetIndex(this)>Two</a></li>
<li><a onclick=GetIndex(this)>Three</a></li>
<li><a onclick=GetIndex(this)>Four</a></li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>


And the Menu.js javascript:



function GetIndex(sender)
{
var aElements = sender.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName(a);
var aElementsLength = aElements.length;

var index;
for (var i = 0; i < aElementsLength; i++)
{
if (aElements[i] == sender) //this condition is never true
{
index = i;
return index;
}
}
}


Why is the commented condition never met? How do I compare if the two HTML elements are equal in Javascript? Thanks for all the help.
