Get value from innerHTML

[solaris7]

Hi Guys,
I managed to get the innerHTML of a cell value in a table and it looks like this:

<input value="1234" type="pass">

How do I just get the value "1234" from the above HTML?

It is not a good practice to use inneHTML for getting the values. Even if you wish to use so, you can get the value like this

var innerObj = innerHTMLObject;
var index = innerObj.indexOf("value=");
var objValue = "";
if(index>0){
        index+=7;
    var tempStr = innerObj.substring(index,innerObj.lenght);
    var tempIndex = tempStr.indexOf("\"");
    tempIndex+=index;
    objValue = innerObj.substring(index,tempIndex);
    //alert("value = "+objValue);
    }

This is a way. But this is not a good way to achieve, since you have to do another logic to read the value. Just google for parsing the column values of a table.

probably something easy as obj.getElementsByTagName("input")[0].value
