Why doesn't a SELECT element's innerHTML reflected which option was
selected? Works in IE. I need this functionality so that I can retain
what choices a user made in a tabbed interface.

Here is my problem in a nutshell: a script to model dynamic table extension. It works under Firefox. But IE just aborts, complaining about an "unknown runtime error" in the line with "innerHTML". Why?
<html><head></head><body>
<script language="javascript"> function extend() { var tb = document.getElementById('thetable').tBodies[0]; var newrow = document.createElement('tr'); tb.insertBefore(newrow,tb.rows[tb.rows.length-1]); tb.rows[tb.rows.length-2].innerHTML = '<td>A</td><td>dummy</td><td>row</td>' } </script>
This is what im trying to achieve. At the top of my page there is some search functionality, through which you cause to be loaded a string representing an HTML page. Below this and occuupying about 80% of the window real estate, there is a DIV. There is also a toggle button with two options "Code View" and "Text View" as I have named them. Depending on which mode you are in, you can see the block of HTML either as code (in other words the tags are not rendered. You see the HTML as it exists.) or as text (rendered HTML). Consider the following code, which is a simplified version of the page.
<script language="javascript"> var mode = "code"; var s = "<html><head> <style type="text/css"> My Stylesheet </style> <title> MyTitle </title> </head> <body>";
The variable s contains an actual example of some HTML im trying to load here (with the contents of the stylesheet omitted.)
Now, the following works fine in Internet Explorer. It does not work at all in Mozilla Firefox. In firefox, for example, I have to cut out the stylesheet, or the entire page goes fubar. Without the embedded stylesheet, the "text" view (rendered html) works just fine. But the "innerText" does not work in Firefox, and im not sure how to replicate it.
I created a page that has an iframe on it. Within this iframe I call an asp page. The asp page is supposed to do some work and then update the innerHTML of a <div> object on the parent page to indicate that processing of the page in the iframe is complete. The code works in IE but not FireFox. I am wondering what is the best way to make the script work for both browsers?
I am generating a string from AJAX data which contains forms and submit buttons. I then try to assign this string to a div using innerHTML. This works fine in IE but Firefox strips form tags and every thing in between form tags. How to solve this issue
I am encountering this problem with Firefox, but no problem in IE. I have in a hidden <div> dynamically generated select options intended for re-use by dynamically created forms on page.
For Example: <div> <option value="1">xxx</option> </div>
With javascript, when I use getElementById() to get the <div>, and then get the innerHTML, on IE I get the content just as they were generated out, and I was able to put this into an empty <select> and everything works. But when I try the same in Firefox, the innerHTML returns only the text part of the content. The "<option value="1">" part has been stripped off. Wondering if there's a solution to get around this?
I'm having an issue with Firefox and the innerHTML code. My index file has the following html body code in it: Code: <div id="testBox" style="text-align: center; color:white;"> test text </div>
Then, in a separate html document loaded through an iframe, I have the following code that works great in IE but not in Firefox: Code: <SCRIPT type="text/javascript"> function ChangeML(){ parent.testBox.innerHTML ='text has been changed'; }; </script>
The function ChangeML is called on a click event using MooTools, but I figured that part isn't what's causing the problems because everything else works fine. No error seems to be reported ... it just skips right over this piece of 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 need to be able to display dynamic HTML inside a DIV (can't tell what the html nodes would be) - i.e needs to be flexible. The HTML that goes inside the DIV would have its own Javascript too. I was able to get this code snippet working on Microsoft IE7+, was wondering why the same won't work on firefox.
HTML Code: <html> <head> <script> /* the input type = hidden is necessary or the JS won't be accessible */ /* script defer tag is also necessary */ function insertHTMLOnButtonPress() { var s = "<html><input type='hidden' id='dummyHidden'/><head><script defer='defer'>function dynamicallyInsertedFunction() { alert('Successfully called - dynamicallyInsertedFunction'); } </sc" + "ript></head><body><input type='text' value='Hello World'/><input type='button' onClick='dynamicallyInsertedFunction();' value='Call Dynamically Inserted Method'/></body></html>"; /* Clearing out innerHTML is also required to flush the innerHTML so that repeated attempts - i.e new HTML/JS should work */ document.getElementById('wholeBody').innerHTML = ''; document.getElementById('wholeBody').innerHTML = s; } </script> </head> <body> <br/> <!-- Don't close the div inline, causes some problem and replaces the buttons too --> <div id="wholeBody"></div> <br/> <input type="button" onClick="insertHTMLOnButtonPress();" value="Insert some dynamic html"/> <input type="button" onClick="dynamicallyInsertedFunction();" value="Call Dynamically Inserted Method"/> </body> </html>
I have tried a couple of things likeRemove the script defer tag - Removing the dummy input element added which is required for Desktop IE - Removing the empty innerHTML step before replacing it But none of these appear to work for Mozilla firefox. I am also looking for a similar behavior on Android's default webbrowser (WebView to be more specific) -- Doesn't work there too.
I spent several hours struggling with dynamic form fields added with appendChild or innerHTML not POSTing on submit in Firefox. The only way I found to make it work is to append any created fields to a DIV within the form. Code:
Is there a way to add an if and else with in innerHTML like this. var sfe = document.getElementById("mainform").innerHTML ='<form name="'+frmName+'">'+ '<!-- comment -->'+ '<h2 id="pa" name="dr">';if(n == 1){'+fname+'}else if(n == 2){<b>No Title</b>} '</h2>'+ 'more'+
I am getting data from two tables in a database using a dropdown box with a onchange and some ajax to update two diferent Div tags, basically the id is passed to a php page,, I grab the data from the two tables, I then echo the data in two html tables. I echo a ** for a delimiter between the two tables,
Then I use a javascript split function to split the responseText into two peices so I can update each DIV with the coresponding data.
Everything works in Firefox, but in IE7 only one div gets updated with its data, the other div will not change, and I get a unknown runtime error. However if I go into my php page and change the data I am echoing after the delimiter to a simple echo 'test' it will work. Code:

When I use mouse wheel in Firefox to scroll contents of the DIV, memory usage in Firefox goes through the roof. Code above is a fully working page, if anyone would like to see what's up, just load it up, and start moving your mouse wheel in the area with text. You don't actually have to scroll the text, just moving the wheel back and forth in that DIV will do. Memory usage will start going up quite fast, and after you stop moving the wheel, it will finally come down a bit after a short while. I've highlighted in red the line where mousewheel event is registered for Firefox. I'm not sure if it's really a problem, but since Opera and IE don't have any strange memory usage, and Firefox does, maybe I did something wrong. In everyday use it shouldn't matter [don't expect to have kilometers of content to scroll], but anyway, it is a bit unsettling.
if ((window)&&(window.netscape)&&(window.netscape.security)) { // OK, this is Gecko/Firefox or someone mimicing it so well // that there is no way to catch it on the act. }
But I need Firefox *1.5 or higher* or another (but sure) way to know that this browser has native SVG support. Here I'm stock.
It seems there is window.navigator.productSub and on my Firefox 1.5 it's 20051111
But I'm not sure: this "build version" is going up guaranteed or it's random like CLASSID? Also is the same Firefox release has the same build for all platforms or not? mozilla.org seems silent.
I've got this code that creates a new new row and cell. I then put some text into the cell with innerHTML - works beautifully with Firefox but fails with IE. I guess IE doesn't support this way of doing it, but is there another way of doing it with DOM?
I want to load an external file into my page via XMLhttpRequest and innerHTML. The external file contains javascript code which is not executed during or after insertion. All the HTML markup is displayed just fine.... basicly even this code doesnt work:
var img = document.createElement("img"); img.attachEvent("onclick",alert("test")); var div = document.createElement("div"); div.appendChild(img); //can't work; div.innerHTML="<-click this";
but i use attachEvent like this,it work; eg:
var img = document.createElement("img"); img.attachEvent("onclick",alert("test")); var text = document.createElement("span"); text.innerHTML="<-click this"; var div = documet.createElement("div");
div.appendChild(img); //can work div.appendChild(text);
