[Javascript] Table Cells' Attributes: colspan and class

[Peter Brunone]

Scott,

    1.  The attribute you want is colSpan (note the capital "S").
    2.  When scripting, this attribute is called className.

    Neither of these is part of the style collection, but rather directly
subordinate to the object.

    Additionally, you may find it useful to know that you can assign
multiple classes to an element (IE 5+) at design time with the following
syntax:

<ELEMENT CLASS = sClass [ sClass2 [ sClass3 ... ] ] ... >

Cheers,

Peter

  Using JScript (this if for I.E. only) I would like to:

  1. Change a table cell's 'colspan=' attribute
  2. Change a table cell's 'class=' attribute

  Each cell has its own id, so I tried
document.getElementById(cellID).colspan=
  and
  document.getElementById(cellID).class=

  Neither worked, I think class is a reserved word in JScript though, but
I'm not sure.  Maybe I can use document.getElementById(cellID).style._? ?
?_.  Any ideas?
