I have some javascript code that errors in FireFox, but only when I use a DOCTYPE expression at the top of the page – until I added that, it worked fine in both IE and FireFox.
Here is the declaration at the top of my page:
[CODE]<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”>
This function errors claiming that divBtContinue does not exist (and if I comment out that line I’m told divBtSubmit doesn’t exist etc):
[CODE]function PostToFile()
{
var isValid;
//validate form fields excluding ssn
var isValid = checkFields(document.faForm,0);
if (isValid)
{
//hide continue button
divBtContinue.style.display = “none”;
//show submit button
divBtSubmit.style.display = “”;
//show SSN question
divSSN.style.display = “”;
SetFormValues();
document.frmBackPost.submit();
//alert(‘submitted’);
}
The object that supposedly doesn’t exist is the same object who’s onclick invokes the function in the first place:
[CODE]<tr>
<td align=”center”><div id=’divBtContinue’><input type=button value=”Continue” onClick=”PostToFile();”></div></td>
</tr>
Again, this works fine in IE with or without the DOCTYPE. In FireFox it works but only without the DOCTYPE. Anyone know how I can change this to work in FireFox without losing my DOCTYPE? Thanks.
