inner.html 1

[nickdel]

I have a div within a div which I'm trying to write a dynamic drop down which you will see from the code below. problem is I am getting an document.getElementById is null error but the div definately exists. Is it something to do with it being within another div?

for (var x = 1; x <= MaxNights; x++)
			   {
			   nights = nights + "<option name=NoNights value="+x+" />"+x
			   }

document.getElementById("nights").innerHTML= nights;

has nothing to do with that. when are you calling this code? are you calling it from a function or from inline javascript? if the latter, it's most likely because this code appears before the div itself.

either move the code into a function or place this code below your div.

Show your HTML for the div you're trying to modify, too. Make sure you copy and paste rather than typing it in.

Its from within a function. The div is already written but is hidden. It is made visible before this part of the code is called.

here's the html also:

<select name="NoNights" onchange="GetPrice()">
     									<div id="nights"></div>
     								</select>

good god.

you can't have a div inside a select.

post a link if you have one. i have a feeling there are a lot of underlying issues in your page.

guys, I'm just being a complete tube! I can just dynamically populate the options, what was I thinking!!

if you still wish to answer would be interesting to see what I was doing wrong!!

Cheers

Are you going to show us ALL the relevant code, or make us ask for it piece by piece?
