What if you want to change the attributes of some related items?
Say you have table cells:
<tr>
<td id="col1">row 1 column 1</td>
<td id="col2">row 1 column 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td id="col1">row 2 column 1</td>
<td id="col2">row 2 column 2</td>
</tr>
*
*
*
You can change the column width for all cells in the column with:
document.getElementById("col1").style.width = 100;
This works with Safari, Mozilla, Firefox -- Haven't tested in IE yet.
You can't accomplish this with class because there is no
getElementByClass method
