Document.getElementById('id').innerHTML Showing Up Blank In IE?
Aug 5, 2009
I have an an element that can successfully be retrieved by document.getElementById('id'),but when I attempt to alert(document.getElementById('id').innerHTML), the string is empty. Then, if I try to change the innerHTML like this:
document.getElementById('id').innerHTML += "new string", I get "unknown runtime error".The thing that bothers me is that the element can be gotten with getElementById, but its property innerHTML seems to be either blank or null when in fact, it contains HTML. By the way, this is all in IE. I have tested in FIrefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera, and it works perfectly in those.

I have a little JS app that is a glorified calculator which I posted the code for below. My code uses the document object to replace the html in the "content" <div> and works great.However, I want to add an inline style in order to change the background of the input (readonly field with an id of "coutput") based on either of the global variables named "MJPD" or "IJPD", (depending on the switch case selected in the user prompt at the beginning of the script.)Simplified....if the value of MJPD is less than 4.6, I want the "coutput" field's background to be red, else be green.The same goes for IJPD, except the threshold for red will be <3.83.Code and what I have tried is below.
<script language="JavaScript">
var MJPD = 1;
var IJPD = 1;
[code].....

The following extremely simply JavaScript code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css">
[Code]....
alerts the innerHTML content in all the browsers. Except in Firefox 3.6.8, which alerts a blank value. What the f?:confused: I know that innerHTML is not a standard DOM method, but it used to be a crossbrowser one since FF 1.5, right? Edit: It does not work even in case of firstChild.nodeValue or firstChild.data. FF 3.6.8 says that the DIV element has no first child, which is amazing.

I want to restrict getElementById to search children of a specific element instead of searching the entire document, in the same way that I can do getElementsByTagName using a specific element as the parent.
In this particular instance the parent is a table and the elements I'm interested in are all TDs, so I did the basic getElementsByTagName('TD') off the table and looped through this array checking the IDs. However, I'm suspecting that the browser can do getElementById faster than I can do a loop in javascript. Is there a neater way to do this? For now, I'll settle for IE-only solutions, though it would be nice to have things work in generic browsers.

I have a table with td consisting of lists with <select></select>. When
I do a document.getElementById("element").innerHTML I don't see the
selected item. IOW, the innerHTML is not dynamic. Is there some way to
get the most recent selected without traversing through the list's
options.

Here's the problem: I have several hidden divs containing information. When you click on a link, javascript executes which is supposed to move the appropriate info from one of the hidden divs into the visible 'body' div. The javascript isn't working, though, and I'm getting 'undefined' instead

I have a bulletted list on one side, and when the user rolls over, information (text and sometimes a picture) about the topic pops up on the right side. I'm retrieving simple html files and using Javascript innerHTML to accomplish this. Everything is working perfectly in Firefox and Opera. In Internet Explorer, I have a very strange bug. The text appears just fine, but images in the html files don't. There is just a blank space the size of the image. There's no little "can't find image" icon either, just blank space. Here's my code:
function showtext(filename){
if (!document.getElementById) return;
if(navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer")

It shows perfectly in Safari and firefox.var A is simply a div that may contain <span></span> tags. This function counts the span tags, and creates buttons to match the number of span tags that parenting div contains. 'parts' is an empty div with an id of 'parts.' It's the location the buttons are to be placed.
As I said, the buttons show up in safari and firefox. But no go with iexplorer.does iexplorer not read the innerHTML call? I've even tried just printing a 'test' string as the innerHTML and, it didn't show up.
Code:
function Parts(A){
var parentV = document.getElementById(A);
var totalCount = parentV.childElementCount;

I'm trying to display a widget that is called through another page. The "test" word shows up, but the WIDGET portion does not. I know the address works, I can call it through the url and it displays fine so that's not the problem. It's something within the javascript.
Here's my code:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
httpRequest("www.addressto/xxx/xxx/recent-widget.php", showrecent);
//Function to display the widget within innerHTML

I am having a problem accessing and element by ID in a script that runs via 'window.onload' at the end of all my script definitions. Do the HTML elements exist at that point or should I look somewhere else for a bug?

I have an onchange method for a select box that goes something like
this (the select is in a form named aForm):
function page_on_change() {
pageElement = aForm.my_page_id;
aForm.nav_page_name.value =
pages[pageElement.options[ pageElement.selectedIndex ].value];
var si = pageElement.selectedIndex;
for ( i = 0 ; i < pages.size ; i++ ) {
document.getElementById("id_" + i).style.display='none'
}
document.getElementbyId("id_" + si).style.display='none'
}
IE fails on the statement:
document.getElementbyId("id_" + si).style.display='none'
and says it doesn't support this property.
What is the workaround?

Basically i'm trying to draw a box over an image which
is turning out to be a nightmare. The problem i'm getting at the moment
is that i'm creating a line with <div which works when it's not hidden
but I need to be able to make it hidden so I can use layers to show all
when it finished drawing to make it smoother. This is how some other
scripts are doing it that i've seen. So i've got it drawing a line and I
need getElementById to pick out the layer but it's only picking out NULL
with the one i've got enabled below. I've tried the others but they just
come out as errors. I need to get top2 which is the <div line to show
itself but I can't seem to reference it by getElementById. I use linux
mozilla so i need it working in mozilla as well as windows that's why
i'm using getElementById. My code is below any ideas anyone?

I've got the following code on one of my pages, it works fine in IE6 and Netscape 6.2, but when you get around to using it on Netscape Navigator 4.08 it doesn't work, instead giving me a "document.getElementByID is not a function" error. Here's the code it has a problem with...
function CrseDets(IDS) {
window.open('coursedetails.asp?whereby=' + document.getElementById(IDS).value,null,'top=0,left=0,width=672,height=500, background="gfx/backgrd.gif", scrollbars=yes');
}

First a little background. I have a client (in-house) who insists that our training pages (launched from within iframes on a parent page) be able to load .wmv files with variables for the width and height parameters so we don't have to recode when videos are switched. Flash videos are not an option.
I've searched the net and have received several suggestions and even code snippets from several sources but the only one that comes close to working is this one:
