I think the javascript tag gets a lot of "Here is what I need" questions because there are a lot of beginner programmers using javascript (especially jquery), and they get stuck.
But when they get stuck, should they ask why their code wasn't working, or should they just ask for the solution so that 10 people can spend 20 minutes doing their work?
Here is a very good example: How to select only the first level children in JQuery
These type of questions come by the dozens daily.

Also, what, if any, type of route does the new closing options have for these types of questions, is this off topic?
