Targeting all objects in multiple subforms with a shared name throughout a form

Question

Hi
Jono Moore was able to find an excellent solution from an original by Radzmar for targeting subforms throughout a form that share a name:
function hideSubs(vNode) {
     if (vNode.className === "subform") {
          //name of subform you're targeting
          if (vNode.name === "targetSub") {
               vNode.presence = "hidden";
     for (var i = 0; i < vNode.nodes.length; i += 1) {
          hideSubs(vNode.nodes.item(i));
hideSubs(xfa.form);
Has anyone any thoughts on how to extend this functionality to select the object within those subforms?
So:     (1) find all subforms with the shared name (a solution above), then
          (2) select all objects inside those subforms only (all types: text fields, radio buttons, check boxes, etc.).
The intention is to lock these down and to apply a colour change (from white to grey) as a visual cue. The solution above allows the background colour of the subforms to be changed, but what is required in this case is a colour change to the value backgrounds of the objects within those subforms only.
Any thoughts grately appreciated.
Thanks

Francis play around with the above code, it's a simplified version of the script you are using.
I've used that node traversal script for a bunch of stuff myself but I'm trying to wrap my head more around Radzmar's simplified version as it looks like it would be a lot faster for larger forms. And it's getting into areas I don't know much about so I'm learning stuff too!
