Firefox version 3.5.3 Firebug version 1.4.3 As for an example, I cannot get it to work on any page. <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";> <head> <title></title> <script type="text/javascript"> function testDivContents(divToTest) { alert(divToTest.innerText); } </script> </head> <body> <div id="nameOfMyElementId" onclick="testDivContents(this);"></ div> </body> </html> What I am trying to determine is if the div is empty. In IE (I know that is the worst browser ever), I am able to use a conditional statement against the innerText property. In Firefox, the alert states that innerText is undefined. I haven't been developing against standards long enough to know which property I should be using so I thought I could use Firebug to list the valid properties with the dir command. The root of the problem however is not solving the test for an empty div (though I will take advice). The real issue is why can't I get the dir command to work in Firebug javascript debugging? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Firebug" group.
