innerHTML not working with classname in JS
21,717
You ar creating a nodeList
(a special array of Nodes) using getElementsByClassName
. Alternatively you can use document.querySelector
, which returns the first element with className .catlink
:
function showDiv( discselect ) {
if( discselect === 1) {
document.querySelector(".catlink").innerHTML = "aaaaaaqwerty";
}
}

My drop down List to select particular value-
<select name="category" id="category" onChange="showDiv(this.value);" > <option value="">Select This</option> <option value="1">Nokia</option> <option value="2">Samsung</option> <option value="3">BlackBerry</option> </select>
This is the div where i want to show the text
<span class="catlink"> </span>
And this is my JS function -
function showDiv( discselect ) { if( discselect === 1) { alert(discselect); // This is alerting fine document.getElementsByClassName("catlink").innerHTML = "aaaaaaqwerty"; // Not working } }
Let me know why this is not working, and what i am doing wrong?
