getAttribute('s tyle') not working in IE

CES

All,

I'm 2 for 2 on stupid questions this works in FireFox but not in IE it's not returning the value of the style element and I'm getting [object] error??

document.getEle mentById('test' ).innerHTML = document.getEle mentById('id_Co mpanyName').get Attribute('styl e');
<div class="dR4C2">
<p id="id_CompanyN ame" style="font-size:<%=aspName FontSize%>px;">
<%=aspCompanyNa me%>
</p>
</div>

It seems to be a problem with the getAttribute('s tyle') portion of the code because if I change the request to getAttribute('i d') it executes properly. If someone could look at this an give me some hint as to why it isn't working in IE I be great full Thanks in advance. - CES

Whatch the case! For further development convenience Mozilla brings
everything to the lower case and IE to the upper case.

All, I'm at a loss, the code below works in IE but not in Netscape and I'm unskilled enough not to know why.

The loading of the data part works great, but for some reason anytime I try to impart a style setting (via either putting it inline, a CSS, or through javascript) the DIV completely ignores my setting. The setting most importantly I'm trying to apply is display: none, but none of them work. If I pre-create everything...

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
