jQuery hasParent() function

Just posting this here for future reference :)

/*
 * Test whether argument elements are parents
 * of the first matched element
 * @return boolean
 * @param objs
 *  a jQuery selector, selection, element, or array of elements
*/
$.fn.hasParent = function(objs) {
 // ensure that objs is a jQuery array
 objs = $(objs); var found = false;
 $(this[0]).parents().andSelf().each(function() {
  if ($.inArray(this, objs) != -1) {
   found = true;
   return false; // stops the each...
  }
 });
 return found;
}
