adding a class in JavaScript

crmpicco · October 4th, 2005, 06:02 AM

Code:

var el = document.getElementById("helpTxtFl_adt");

            el.innerHTML = "";
            el.innerHTML = ""
            for(s=1; s<=segments; s++)
            {
                el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + document.forms["form"].elements["arrival"+s].value.bold();
                el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + "&nbsp;to&nbsp;"
                el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + document.forms["form"].elements["departure"+s].value.bold();
                el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + "&nbsp;Seat:&nbsp;"
                el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + passDetails[4];
                if(s != segments)
                {
                    el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + ",&nbsp;"
                }
                else
                {
                    el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + "&nbsp;"
                }                
            }
            el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + ""

Is there any way of attaching a 'class' defined in the CSS to this innerHTML. just adding a font tag is not accepted

Code:

el.className = "<class name here>";

thanks for that Joe:

Code:

for(s=1; s<=segments; s++)
            {
                var splitStr = splitString[0];
                eval("passDetails"+s+"") = splitStr.split("/");
            }

            el.innerHTML = "";
            el.innerHTML = ""
            for(s=1; s<=segments; s++)
            {
                el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + document.forms["form"].elements["arrival"+s].value.bold();
                el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + "&nbsp;to&nbsp;"
                el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + document.forms["form"].elements["departure"+s].value.bold();
                el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + "&nbsp;Seat:&nbsp;"
                el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + eval("passDetails"+s+"[4]");
                if(s != segments)
                {
                    el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + ",&nbsp;"
                }
                else
                {
                    el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + "&nbsp;"
                }                
            }
            el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML + ""

In the code above I keep getting cannot assign errors,
is there a way to name the array dynamically inside the loop
and refer to it dynamically as shown above?

TIA.

tried this, but keep getting errors;

Code:

var eval("passDetails"+s+"") = splitStr.split("/");

You know my thoughts on eval, it shouldn't be used. Either use an array or just declare a few variables.
