changing styles of createElement | appendChild

K

kie

hi,

when i use appendChild, the following code ends in success

cellSec3=document.createElement('TD');

aTextBox=document.createElement('input');
aTextBox.type = 'text';
aTextBox.value = nz(s_unit_price);
aTextBox.size = '15';
aTextBox.name = 'txt_box'
aTextBox.onchange=onChangeEvent();

cellSec3.appendChild(aTextBox);

however, i would like to learn about the other attributes i can assign
to "aTextBox". does anyone know of any link to get me started?

As an example, I wish to change the alignment of the text inside my
text box, i have tried:

aTextBox.text-align = 'right';
aTextBox.style.text-align = 'right';
aTextBox.style.align = 'right';

among others, during searching i came across the term:

aTextBox.style.key = 1;

which does not seem to do anything, but causes no error, i'dg gratly
appreciate any help;

regards, kie

I'm pretty sure this last instruction won't work.
aTextBox.onchange = new Function ("evt", function body);
cellSec3.appendChild(aTextBox);

aTextBox.style.textAlign = "right";

Invalid.

You can see which attributes your browser supports running this code:

var str="";
for (var i in aTextBox)
str = str + i + ",\n";
document.write(str);
