Hi there,
i dont know about your loop, but this works:
var anchors = document.getElementsByTagName("a");
for (var anchor = 0; anchor<anchors.length;anchor++){
var item = anchors[anchor];
alert(item.href)
}
(an excess of vars, but its just an example ok:-)
Hope this helps,
Allard Schripsema

Subject: [Javascript] looping through nodeList
Can't seem to get this down, I get an HTML object, but
it's length is zero.
var anchors = document.getElementsByTagName("a");
alert(anchors); // yields [object HTML Collection]
for (anchor in anchors)
{
var item = anchor;
alert(item); //yields length, item, namedItem
(once)
}
at this point, I cannot figure out for the life of me
how to access an instance of the anchors list.
Basically, I just want to call getAttribute("href") on
it.
It seems as though anchors is not really a nodeList,
more like a list of metadata about the nodeList.
Thanks.
