I have a nested list:
<ul>
<li><a href='#'>stuff</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>stuff2</a></li>
<ul>
<li><a href='#'>stuff3</a></li>
</ul>
<li><a href='#'>stuff4</a></li>
</ul>
...and want to collapse the nested ul when the li is clicked. Before I was using
$('UL LI').click(function(){
$(this).next().slideToggle();
});
...but this obviously causes a problem when a li doesn't have a ul nested after it. Is there a better way to do this, or is there a way for me to determine if the object returned by $(this).next() is a UL?
