I have some javascript to rearrange a list of elements...
1) Each element (div) is initially given a unique id, the same id of
the database record the element represents.
2) User "moves" element from slot 3 to slot 6, for example (result: 3-
>6, 6->5, 5->4, 4->3).
3) I copy the innerHTML of each div (3-6) into an array.
4) I set the innerHTML of each div (3-6) to now contain the
appropriate content from the array.
5) I update the id's of each div (3-6)...
Seems simple enough for me, and seems to work flawlessly in Firefox...
IE7, however, seems to forget the effects of step 5, so on the second
"move," step 4 puts the innerHTML's in the wrong slots...grrrrrr ...any
ideas? 2  1937

You should move the elements, not their content.
slot[5].appendChild(sl ot[2].firstChild);
That is, provided that the `firstChild' property refers to the element
to be moved, and not to a whitespace text node. You may want to use
slot[2].getElementsByT agName("*")[0] or another reference instead.

Thanks for the help. I implemented this approach, and guess what? It
seems flawless in Firefox but it's broken in IE7!! The failing
behavior is different now. I don't know why but I'll post more
details tomorrow. Anonymous should take down Microsoft after the CoS
dust settles. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

I have an html text string within a div, eg.:
<div id="example">Text text text</div>
I know its easy to change styles by using getElementById - for example:
document.getElementById("example").style.fontColor="#ff0000";
But what way(s) are there to change the actual text content itself on the
page dynamically, from "Text text text" to"Bla bla bla" ?

I would like to know if it is possible to change the name of an

for the purpose of populating a flash navigation menu.

Mozilla-based browsers have watch and unwatch methods to detect change
in value of form elements (or any Javascript variables really). IE
doesn't support this.
Is there a a reliable cross-browser way alternative to this? Something
that will let me detect a change in value for a form element and
trigger my own callback function upon change?
Hopefully, something that is generic enough to be called as
"MyWatch(element)"!

Hi,
I wrote a small c# programm, which generates an xml-string by serializing a
class and sends it to a server. Now I want to change some values in that
xml-string.
The only way for me to do that might be, to deserialize it, change the
particular attribute and serialize it again, to finally save it on my
harddisk.
But I believe, that there is a more convenient way to do this, since it is
also possible to append an element...

Hi,
I'd really appreciate any help. Im trying to change a label over and
over again. I can change it the first time, by using the following
code, however it never works again, how can i do this so it uses the
same element name? This is driving me insane. On the second call to var
spanElm = document.getElementById("FirstNameLengthLabel"); spanElm is
set to NULL.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
