Change color of font using javascript

[abhubbart]

I want change the color on the font to red for the text within the div element.

I have the following code.

[HTML]
<style type="text/css">
.style2 {color: #000000}
</style>
[/HTML]

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
function radio1(){
document.form1.test12.style.color="#FF0000";}
</script>

[HTML]
<form name="form1" method="post" action="submit. php">
<p class="style2"> <input name="radType" type="radio" onClick="radio1 ()" value="new">Cha nge to red.</p>

<div id="test12"><p class="style2"> You agree to the following by checking this box and clicking submit.</p></div>

</form>[/HTML]


I think that is the code, I cut out the extra stuff...My page works fine except changing that font color. please ignore any mistakes i might have made in copying.

I hope this makes sense.

hi ...

instead of:

document.form1.test12
 

use:

document.getElementById('test12')
 

kind regards

I made the change you suggested. Although, I don't receive any errors. I don't get the desired results. I want the text in the html to change to red when the radio button is clicked.

hi ...

there has to be another error ... is the function called?

try this ... that works:

[HTML]
<div id="test" style="color: green;">test</div>
<input type="button" value="red it :)" onclick="docume nt.getElementBy Id('test').styl e.color = 'red';"/>
[/HTML]
kind regards

Thank you so much for you help. The only thing i can figure out that was stopping it was the fact that i had the class defined in the <p> tag instead of the <div> tag. At any rate, i have it working now.

Thanks again.
