I'm trying to set a submit button to change text and color when clicked.
Like saying "please wait" instead of "submit" and then changing the
background color and text color. All works, except for changing the text
color.
I can set style.backgroun d='red' to change the background color to red.
But if I say style.color='gr een' to change the text color, it does not
change. How do you change the text color on a button when it is clicked?

Funny, it worked fine for me in IE6 and NN7.2.
What browser are you trying to get it to work in? It won't work in all
browsers, though it should work in all that support the element.style
property AFAIK.

It's because you're disabling it.
It worked fine without that disabling bit in there.
It's an IE thing. Worked fine in NN7 either way. So, I'd say in IE you
can't override the font color of a disabled element.

In Internet Explorer, once you set disabled = true on a button, you have no
control over the text color. IE "greys" the text out (Opera 7.52 appears to do
this as well).
Your code works in Gecko-based browsers: Netscape 7, Firefox, Mozilla, Camino,
etc.

Hi. Thanks to you and Kaeli for good information. I would not have
