I've built a table on the fly within a js function. In another function I'm trying to get the value of a cell in a particular row on that table. I've retrieved the cell object but cannot get it's value :
var claimDate = parent.expenseDisplay.document.getElementById("row"+lineNo+"Date");
now I thought that the following would give the the data
var cdate = getObject(claimDate).value;
Assume a form with a button
<form id="myform"
<input id="mybutton" type="button">
</form>
how can i use getElementById to access the button?
I tried this: var a
a=document.getElementById("mybutton")
but i get an error "a is not an object"
Any idea?
This code generates an "objected expected" error when I select the unselected option in the list.
Code:
<html><head>
<script type="text/javascript">
[code]....
My code:
function run() {
for(var k = 0; k < newPhotos.length; k++)
{[code]....
I get an error on this line Quotedocument.getElementById(imageId).style.backgroundImage = "url(" + newPhotos[k] + ")";
the error is: QuoteObject Required
I'm just not sure what object they are talking about. This piece of code basically goes through and assigns x amount of divs a background image.
I wrote the simple code in javascript but it dosent work its
document.getElementById("Label1").innerText = "Change";
but it gives an error : "'document.getElementById(...)'is null or not an object "
I've got what should be a simple assignment of either an element value
or a default string to a variable, but when the element doesn't exist I
get an "Object required" error rather than an assignment of the default
value.
I originally used the simple statement:
var v = document.getElementById('foo').value ||
parent.document.getElementById('foo').value ||
'unknown'
document.writeln(v);
This caused the "Object required" error if there was no element, so I
added some error checking:
var v = (document.getElementById)
? document.getElementById('foo').value
: (parent.document.getElementById)
? parent.document.getElementById('foo').value
: 'unknown'
document.writeln(v);
Unfortunately, this still results in an "Object required" error when
the element is not present in the document or its parent.
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 keep getting an error stating "getElementById("ballElement") is null, but I have a div with that exact id. I have looked at the JS script before that line, but found no errors there either. Please take a minute to see if you find something.

I just got this script for a countdown on a website and I got it to work locally but when I upload it to the server i get the error "index.html:22 Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'fancycountdown'".
I have checked to make sure all other javascript files are loading and they are and I can't figure out whats wrong. You can see it [URL]
Should I use both name and id
<div name="abc" id="abc"> for using getElementById in NS?
I am trying to alter css using javascript as well as use the innerHTML
function. I have pasted below 3 forms that access getElementById in
slightly different ways (I wanted to rule out that it was the method.)
All 3 work fine on IE but only work momentarily on Firefox. For
example, one form has text that changes from red to black when the user
clicks the button. In IE it changes. In Firefox it changes for a
split second then goes back to black. Code:
I've been trying to follow the example from the sitepoint book on DHTML to change the href property of a link, but it doesn't work no matter what I try. Here's the code in the HTML file: Code:
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have this problem and when I came looking for help, I checked out the other thread like this but I couldn't get it to work. Here is the function -
PHP Code:
function newForm(focus, field)
{
if ( focus == 'no' )
{
if ( document.getElementById(field).innerText == '' )
{
document.getElementById(field).innerText = '____________'
}
}
if ( focus == 'yes' )
{
if ( document.getElementById(field).innerText == '____________' )
{
document.getElementById(field).innerText = ''
}
}
}
and here is the form -
PHP Code:
<b>Field 1:</b> <input type='text' name='field1' class='textbox' value='____________' onFocus="newForm('yes', 'field1')" onFocusOut="newForm('no', 'field1')" /><br /><br />
<b>Field 2:</b> <input type='text' name='field2' class='textbox' value='____________' onFocus="document.form.field2.innerText=''" onFocusOut="document.form.field2.innerText='____________'" /><br /><br />
field1 uses the function but field2 uses just onFocus and onFocusOut but as you can see, it won't work.
Works fine in FF, Safari . . . but not with IE. The error is "Object doesn't support this property or method".I have narrowed it down to this line (and a few like it)name = escape(document.getElementById('name').value);The escape() is not the issue, same with or without.I am trying to capture the text value from the field with id='name'. I have found discussions about this problem with IE, but not a solution. This must be easy, just trying to get a cross browser solution to load a JS variable with an <input> value.
View 7 Replies View RelatedMy document had the following nested DIV structure, with a possible
<SPAN> between the DIV and the <A> elements:
<div id="container">
<div id="D1">
<span>blah blah</span><br>
<A id="A1">item</a><br>
How do I refer to multiple elements with IDs such as question1,
question2, question3 etc, in following?
document.getElementById('question').innerHTML
I want to use
for (var num=1;num<6;num++) {
document.getElementById('question').innerHTML
}
but cannot work out how to get the question1, question2, etc into the
code...
I came across a third party script I want to learn how to configure as
well as learn more dhtml in the doing. I'm not much of a JS guy yet
but I'm working on it.
This script works fine in IE6 but is a dead fish in FireFox. There is
no support offered on the site where it came from.....
Is there any wildcard, like *, for addressing all the element ID's on the
page at once, like if you want to hide all layers at once. For example:
document.getElementById('*').style.visibility = 'hidden'
I know the above doesn't work but you get what I'm driving at right? Is
there anything like that for that method or in javascript in general?
I have this annoying problem with netscape...
I'm trying to access a form value by using getElementByID and in NS i
end up with a null reference.
The following HTML is the form component that gives me headache:
<form name='task' ...>
....
<select name='prioritySelect' class='selectwidth'>
<option value=''>Choose one</option>
<option value=Ƈ'>Critical</option>
<option value=ƈ'>High</option>
<option value=Ɖ'>Medium</option>
<option value=Ɗ'>Low</option>
</select>
....
</form>
And the related javascript code:
if(document.getElementById("prioritySelect").disabled == false)
{ ... }
When digging into this I can get the desired information by using
document.task.prioritySelect, but that should not be necessary, right?
I hope that anyone knows how to deal with this problem..

Why? And how do I correct?
Is it just me, or do variables not work in getElementById? For example:
