Question

I am using the following code to retrieve the content of a cell in the table. This works fine in Mozilla Firefox. But, its not working in IE. Any suggestions??

var langName = tblCells[1].textContent.trim();

The error message is:

1.textContent is null or not an object

Answer 1

function text ( el ) {
   return el.textContent? el.textContent : el.innerText;
}

Use however you like. IE uses innerText.
