.innerHTML problem...

MattoThePotatto · Jul 18, 2008

Hey. I've tried the following code.. No success...
...
<script src="script.js">
</script>
...
<span id="one"> </span>
...

And the script..
document.getElementById('one').innerHTML="what ever here";
...
rest of script here (Working fine)

Any solutions?
Thanks, ^^

Wait for the onload event to fire so you can guarantee that the element is really present.

Hope this helps,

document.getElementById('one').innerHTML="what ever here";

Thanks ^^ Worked,

Can I call more than one function at a time with onload?
<body onload="firstfunction()" onload="secondfunction()">
