<h3 id="Example" name="Example">例子</h3>

<pre class="brush: html">&lt;div id="div-01"&gt;Here is div-01&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div id="div-02"&gt;Here is div-02&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;li&gt;This is a list item&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;This is another list item&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;div id="div-03"&gt;Here is div-03&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
  var el = document.getElementById('div-03').previousElementSibling;
  document.write('&lt;p&gt;Siblings of div-03&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol&gt;');
  while (el) {
    document.write('&lt;li&gt;' + el.nodeName + '&lt;/li&gt;');
    el = el.previousElementSibling;
  }
  document.write('&lt;/ol&gt;');
&lt;/script&gt;
</pre>
