I am working on a project that has a div with 32 children. I need to create a dropdown menu that will change the background of each div and the parent. For the other parts of the project that don't have children, I have been using the following code:

```
function changediv(color) {
document.getElementById('div1').style.background = color;
}

```

HTML:

```
<select>
<option onClick="changediv('#555');">Hex</option>
<option onClick="changediv('blue');">Colorname</option>
<option onClick="changediv('url(example.com/example.png)');">Image</option>
</select>

```

I could just add a different ID to each child (id1,id2,id3,...), but there are 32 children and not only would I have to add 32 IDs, but also 32 lines of Javascript. There has to be a better way; somehow selecting children or even changing the actual CSS code that selects the children.

Thanks, Ian
