i am creating div using DOM Element as
phototab = document.createElement('div');
phototab.setAttribute('class', 'phototab fleft');
//phototab.className = "phototab fleft";
i tried both methods but it is not adding class in IE7
You can’t use
setAttribute()to affect things that are actually properties of DOM elements.should work. (It’s an IE thing; other browsers are less picky, but for IE a property is a property and an attribute is an attribute.)
edit — I should say that you shouldn’t use
.setAttribute()when it’s unnecessary.
