jQuery: Parent or Sibling? And how to 'instruct' a sibling search?
I have a list that looks like this:

    <li class = "current_parent level-0">
      <a> Parent Link </a>
      <ul class= "children">
         <li class = "level-1">
               <a> Link to child </a>
         </li>
         
         <li class = "level-1 current_page_item">
              <a> Link to child </a>
         </li>
    
         <li class = "level-1">
               <a> Link to child </a>
         </li>
    
         </ul>
    </li>

Basically, I want to get the HREF of the <a> element one level UP and one level DOWN from the current_page_item <a>.

I can get the URL of the current_page_item > a easily enough via .attr(), i.e. $('.current_page_item').attr("href");. 

But how can I tell jQuery to look one level up? .parent() doesn't seem right, because they're not parents, they're siblings,right?

But how can I tell siblings to move UP or DOWN a list? 

Basically I want $('.current_page_item > ONE LI > A UP').attr("href"); and $('.current_page_item > ONE LI > A DOWN').attr("href");. 

Again, thanks for the help on my jQuery n00bquest!
