I would like to change a DOM Object with a turbogears ajax call.
At the moment the ajax call returns a string with the html of the node
that should be replaced. How can I swap the existing DOM Object with
the new one I got from the ajax callback?
InnerHTML replaces the inner part of the element, but I want to
replace the whole thing. OuterHtml seems to what I need but it does
not work in Firefox. swapDOM takes two DOM-Objects, but I've only got
a string for the replacement. How can I convert a string to a DOM
object?
Pseudo example:
<html>
<table>
<tr><td id="thisisatd" colspan="2">A text</td></tr>
</table>
</html>
>From the Ajax call I get the string back "<td id="thisisatd"
colspan="3">A new text</td></tr>".
How can I replace the td with this new string?
My current function to do this looks like this:
var doReplace = function (req) {
for (var e in req.changes) {
var element = document.getElementById(e)
if (element) {
element.outerHTML = req.changes[e]; // <- Does not work in
Firefox
}
else {
alert("element not found:" + e);
}
}
}
