var findParent = require('find-parent');

var element = document.getElementsByTagName('a')[0];

var result = findParent.byMatcher(element, function(node) {
  return node.className === 'foo';
});

// result is === to the element <div class="foo">

byClassName(element, className, opts)

var findParent = require('find-parent');

var element = document.getElementsByTagName('a')[0];

// result is === to the element <div class="foo">
