Question

I have the following lines of Javascript:

 var button = document.getElementById("scriptsubmit");
 button.setAttribute("class", "remove");

In Firefox this works perfectly and in Internet explorer it doesn’t.

I am aware that Internet Explorer expects class to be className, but I’m uncertain how to detect which to use as object detection doesn’t appear to apply in this case.

Thanks for your replies

Answer 1

You can just use the className property directly in both browsers:

var button = document.getElementById("scriptsubmit");
button.className = "remove";
