If you have jquery and you want to get all descendant elements you can use:

 var all_children= $(parent_element).find('*');

Just be aware that all_children is an HTML collection and not an array. They behave similarly when you're just looping, but collection doesn't have a lot of the useful Array.prototype methods you might otherwise enjoy.
