Netscape says Not a Function, IE DOES!

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

I have a function in a js file that works fine in IE but netscape says my statement:
var tabRow = document.tabTable.insertRow();

is not a function.

The page it displays on is [url]http://www.relpaxchallenge.com/patient/pt_attack.htm[/url]

the full function script is posted at:

@Khalid_AliSep 24.2003 — Yeah..that is because you are trying to use IE specific function

var tabRow = document.tabTable.[b]insertRow()[/b];

you will need to use DOM specific methods to add or remove elements

createElement()

etc...

Could you please give me an example using the insertrow line?

as I said insertRow() is only IE specific,it will not work with NS,

If you want to make it work for both browsers use DOM methods..

@kdorrickauthorSep 25.2003 — Hey Khalid,

I have fixed the table issue by adding the create element tag, but now get a function error further down the js page...

tabButton.attachEvent('onclick', ShowTab);

I have searched the w3 site with no success on what to do (probably because I am not too sure what to look for).

Thanks,

Karen
