Safari and setting backgroundcolor with javascript

[RicksAtWork]

var obj = document.getElementById("div1");

obj.style.backgroundColor = "#FF0000";

This works in al browsers except Safari 1.3.2

Any ideas how to resolve this?

I've never heard of that not working in safari before, however I don't have a mac to prove or disprove that notion (I did not find anything about it from a google search, however)

However, there are alternatives to changing background colors:

<style type="text/css">
.bg {
   background-color:#ff0000;
}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
var obj = document.getElementById("div1");
obj.className = "bg"
</script>

its for a yellow fad type technique - so I cant add all the iterations of this to the css!

The code you gave works fine - it may be that you're fading too fast for Safari to update all the iterations. try slowing down your fade delay.

Hope this helps,
