Javascript not working in IE

huylord · 01-10-2010, 07:06 AM

My Body looks like this:

Code:

<body>
<div class="postprofile" id="profile1">
        <span style="white-space:nowrap;">
                   <span style="color:#536482;">Posts</span>: </span> 5
   <br />
</div>
</body>

I want to get the number 5 so I use this javascript:

Code:

x = document.getElementsByTagName('div')
For(y=0;y<x.length;y++)
{
If(x[y].className == "postprofile"){
A= x[y].innerHTML;
B=parseInt(x[y].innerHTML.split("Posts</span>: </span> ")[1]);
Document.write(B);
                                                   }
}

And it worked fine in Firefox, but not in IE. Can anybody help me with this??

Apart from the obvious case errors ( 'Document' instead of 'document', 'For' instead of 'for') try alerting A :

alert(A);

You will see that browsers interpret your HTML differently so you need to check your match is going to be universal or create a specific node for the numeric value.
