Greets..

I need to clear text (reset) in a TEXTAREA in my page.

No problem on IE5+:

var textarea=getElementById(id_textarea);
textarea.innerHTML="";


BUT this doesn't work on Mozilla 1.6 (latest version)
Does anybody know why?

Thanks

try something like

document.SomeForm.textbox.value = "";

inside of whatever function you have

if this doesn't work let me know

hi dcooldude_1,

your code is correct (no errors), but doesn't work on Mozilla...

Well, give me a couple days to figure it out.... Then, I will let you know how to fix your problem......

Sorry my fix didn't work for you...


But, out of curiosity, did it work on Netscape?

obect references are tricky sometimes so you might have to try several different approaches to find one that works. try adding a browser check if you can't find a way that works for both browsers. Also make sure you don't leave out the <form> tag, that works fine in IE but NE hates messy code...
