    Here is my HTML structure:

    <ul class="ul-main">
        <li>James</li>
        <ul class="ul-sub">
                  <li>Joyce</li>   
                  <li class="widget_subpages_current_page">Randi</li>   
        </ul>
        <li>John</li>
        <li>David</li>
    </ul>
    HTML:
    And now I need to addClass('current-li-main') class to the first <li> element top in hierarchy where widget_subpages_current_page class is. So, it will be <li class="current-li-main">James</li>


    So, the result will be:
    <ul class="ul-main">
        <li class="current-li-main">James</li>
        <ul class="ul-sub">
                  <li>Joyce</li>   
                  <li class="widget_subpages_current_page">Randi</li>   
        </ul>
        <li>John</li>
        <li>David</li>
    </ul>
    HTML:
    How will this jQuery code look like?
