i'm looking for JS code that can change the contents of a span or div that will work in firefox, similar to http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/7916 but FF compatible
i'm not sure if it is something i'm doing or what, but i can't get it to work  6/12/2006 5:03:19 PM

<script type="text/JavaScript">
...
function Tick()
{
document.getElementById("counterOne").innerHTML = TimeSince(2006, 5, 1, 0, 0);
document.getElementById("counterTwo").innerHTML = TimeUntil(2006, 10, 30, 24, 0);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="window.tmr = setInterval(Tick, 999)" onunload="clearInterval(window.tmr)">
...
<span id="counterOne"><script type="text/JavaScript">document.write(TimeSince(2006, 5, 0, 0, 0))</script></span>
This is from a JavaScript timer that I wrote. What you want is in bold. Make sure that you use document.getElementByID() to reference the object and innerHTML to change the text inside the span.
The problem with the link you posted is that document.all and innerText are specific to Microsoft's JScript, and are not part of JavaScript.

alright, i'm still having no luck, let me post some code
here's the function that gets called to modify the info in the span
function textCounter(field,cntfield,maxlimit) {
if (field.value.length > maxlimit)
field.value = field.value.substring(0, maxlimit);
else
cntfield.innerHTML = maxlimit - field.value.length;
}
and here is the code that calls it and what it modifies (forgive the php)
echo' <td nowrap style="vertical-align:top"><b><span id="counter' . $counter . '" name="counter['.$counter.']">400</span></b> characters remaining</td>';
echo' <td><textarea id="comments' . $counter . '" name="comments[' . $counter . ']" rows="4" cols="60" wrap maxlength="400" onKeyDown="textCounter(document.form.getElementByID(\'comments'.$counter.'\'),document.form.getElementByID(\'counter' . $counter . '\'),400)" onKeyUp="textCounter(document.form.getElementByID(\'comments'.$counter.'\'),document.form.getElementByID(\'counter' . $counter . '\'),400)"';
echo'>';
and an example minus the php
<td nowrap style="vertical-align:top"><b><span id="counter0" name="counter[0]">400</span></b> characters remaining</td>
<td><textarea id="comments0" name="comments[0]" rows="4" cols="60" wrap maxlength="400" onKeyDown="textCounter(document.form.getElementByID('comments0'),document.form.getElementByID('counter0'),400)" onKeyUp="textCounter(document.form.getElementByID('comments0'),document.form.getElementByID('counter0'),400)"></textarea></td>

This works.
The function is document.getElementById() not document.getElementByID(). I got it wrong in my post earlier...sorry  You shouldn't need the "form" part either.6/12/2006 8:58:23 PM |
