JavaScript Error

[kruser]

Hello,

Can anyone tell me why this Javascript line is causing an error. I think it is the hyphen between background and color. If it is how do I work with that?

document.getElementById('sign').style.background-color="White";

Try

document.getElementById('sign').style='background-color: white';

Apparently the hyphen does cause an error with javascript when used that way. A solution is to change "background-color" to "backgroungColor".

document.getElementById('sign').style.backgroundColor= "white" ;

This would change the div background color styling (id="sign") to white.

Thanks for the input wige as it led me in a good direction.
