Web Developing Computer geeks, Lend Me Your Ears: Vanity Question.

[Conservomax]

I have a fairly specific Question for any webhead computer geeks (this incldes myself).

Can anyone tell me of a comprehensive list of attributes for the document.getAttributeById() function in javascript?

Particularly, can anyone tell me how to dynamicly change a css class on a DOM element?

I thought that this would work but oh noooo:

document.getElementById('id').class = "newClass"

or

document.getElementById('id').style.class = "newClass"

Why can't browsers be compatable with my code?

I've posted in computer forums, this site is actually better, there are some hard-core computer geeks here who make me look like a rank amateur.

Maybe because "newClass" isn't a real class.

Check on w3schools.

Did you try changing the classname instead of the class. Just found this:

1. function swapIt(id, newclass) {
2. if (document.getElementById) {
3. if(selected_id != id) {
4. document.getElementById(id).className = newclass;
5. }
6. }
7.}

That's sample code.
