[cfaussie] Re: [OT] javascript checked attribute

2006-06-12 Thread Steve Onnis 








Had a bit of a play. Looks like you cant
set the checked property for the checkbox until its been written
to the page like this



var newCheckbox = document.createElement(
input );

newCheckbox.type = checkbox;

newCheckbox.name =
itemToDeploy;

newCheckbox.value = somevalue;


document.body.appendChild(newCheckbox)

newCheckbox.checked = true;



otherwise use a string to create the
checkbox element like this



var newCheckbox =
document.createElement(input type=\Checkbox\
name=\itemToDeploy\ value=\somevalue\ +
(parentListItem.className == inherit ? checked :
) +  )

document.body.appendChild(newCheckbox)

_javascript_ checked attribute







I have the following _javascript_











var newCheckbox =
document.createElement( input );
newCheckbox.type = checkbox;
newCheckbox.name =
itemToDeploy;
newCheckbox.value = fileArray[ i ][ 1 ]; 
if ( parentListItem.className ==
inherit ) {
newCheckbox.checked = true;
}
alert( newCheckbox.checked );






Everything shows up as expected, except that the check box is not
checked, even though alert( newCheckbox.checked ); outputs true...





Does anyone have any idea what could cause this?











Thanks in advance.

You can't add the checked attribute after the input has been created,
it must be part of the createElement method.

Try this:

var checked = ;

if ( parentListItem.className == inherit ) {
  checked =  checked;
}

var newCheckbox = document.createElement( input type=checkbox
name=itemToDeploy + checked + );
newCheckbox.value = fileArray[ i ][ 1 ];
