TalkPHP - View Single Post - Change Table Row Colour with Checkbox onClick

I have a question about this part:

Code:

 
var pTR = pTarget.parentNode.parentNode;
        
if(pTR.nodeName.toLowerCase() != 'tr')

You're creating the variable "pTR" and setting it to:

pTarget.parentNode.parentNode

Then using it later in the next line. Are you doing this just to
shorten it so it wouldn't be so long like this?

Code:

if(pTarget.parentNode.parentNode.nodeName.toLowerCase() != 'tr')

Also, how come you're using the toLowerCase() function?
