 / Published in: jQuery
 

URL: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2310270/jquery-find-closest-previous-sibling-with-class

$('li.currentsub').prevAll("li.parcat:first");

Tested it with your markup:

$('li.currentsub').prevAll("li.parcat:first").text("woohoo");

will fill up the closest previous li.par_cat with "woohoo".
