[mochikit] [object Object]

Wed, 01 Nov 2006 14:56:39 -0800

Hello -

I'm starting to noodle around with MochiKit after having done a bit of roll-my-own _javascript_ coding. I'm trying to do some DOM manipulation stuff and have run into a problem that I can't get past. I'm creating a couple of spans, appending them to the document's body and putting some text in each span. Right in front of the text I'm putting in the each span is '[object Object]'. I can't figure out what's making that happen. Here's my test page:


=======
<html>
<head>
<title>Test Page</title>

<script type = "text/_javascript_" src = "" </script>

<script language = "_javascript_">
    var >    {
        var doc = currentDocument();

        var leftSpan = SPAN(null, {'id'    : 'leftSpan'});
        updateNodeAttributes(leftSpan, {'style' : {'float'   : 'left',
                                                   'margin'  : '5px',
                                                   'padding' : '1em',
                                                   'border'  : '2px ridge' }});

        var rightSpan = SPAN(null, {'id'    : 'rightSpan'});
        updateNodeAttributes(rightSpan, {'style' : {'margin'  : '0',
                                                    'padding' : '1em',
                                                    'float'   : 'right',
                                                    'border'  : '2px ridge' }});

        appendChildNodes(doc.body, leftSpan);
        appendChildNodes(doc.body, rightSpan);

        appendChildNodes(rightSpan, "Here is some text");
        appendChildNodes(leftSpan, "Here is some more text. It's longer than the text in the
    } // onLoad
</script>

</head>
<body >    <h1 align = "center">Test Page</h1>
</body>
</html>
=========


I've tried capturing the return value of each function call, just in case that's getting dumped into the output, but nothing stops the [object Object] from appearing on the page. Does anyone have any hints for this novice Mochikitter?

TIA,
- Craig
