var element3 = document.createElement(”input”);
element3.type = “text”;
element3.id = “txt_discountAmount”;
element3.size = “8″;
//element3.onblur = fun1(this.value);
//inp.setAttribute(’onfocus’, function(){this.select();});
element3.setAttribute(”onblur”,function(){getValue(this);});
//element3.onblur = “fun(this)”;

cell6.appendChild(element3);

function getValues(value)
{
alert(value);
}

It might run a tad faster than other variations of this bug fix because the try-catch block is only used once.

Hope this helps

your fix worked for me. thanks

function setIEAttribute(node,property,value) {
eval(”node.” + property + ” = value”);
}

that seem to do the trick. So in my code I have, for example,

cell.setAttribute(”colspan”,”2″);
if (isIE) setIEAttribute(cell,”colSpan”,”2″);

It’s not pretty but I’d rather have the constant reminder that it’s IE that causing this grief, not the DOM.

Usage:

oElement = document.getElementById(’myElement’);
setInputAttribute(oElement, ‘type’, ‘radio’);

The code:

function setInputAttribute(oInputElement, sAttributeName, sAttributeValue)
{
/* first try the DOM-compliant way
*/
try
{
oInputElement.setAttribute(sAttributeName, sAttributeValue);
}
catch (e)
{
/* then try it another way
*/

/* build HTML string for clone input */

//get all attributes
var aoAttributes = oInputElement.attributes;
var iLength = aoAttributes.length;

//create html string for new input element
var sHTML = “‘;

/* create new element using the HTML string */
oNewElement = document.createElement(sHTML);

/* replace old element with new one */
oInputElement.parentNode.replaceChild(oNewElement, oInputElement);
}
}

Good luck!

I finally got it all to work the way I want it. The next script has been tested in: IE6.0, NS7.1, MFirefox1.5, and Mozilla 1.6 on XP service pack 1. Don’t know about any Mac browsers or other compatibilities…

thanx for the help!

but if u have more rows coming dynamically u ll get prob again. so just follow this code so that u ll get perfect result.

replace

inp.setAttribute(’onfocus’, “this.select();”);

&&&

inp.setAttribute(’onfocus’, function(){this.select();});

with following code

inputTag3.setAttribute(’onblur’, function(){convertToUpperCase(this);});

and in fucntion convertToUpperCase() write as follows.

function convertToUpperCase(fieldId)
{
fieldId.value = fieldId.value.toUpperCase();
}
