My first post. This is to document a tricky thing I found while using Element.readAttribute() on a form. This post is to help the next person looking for an answer on it.
ex: <form id="foo"> <input type="hidden" name="id' value="bar" /> </form> If you have a form with a hidden form element named 'id', and you try to use readAttribute() on the form you will get two different responses: IE gives you an Object (the input object named 'id') Firefox gives you 'foo'. IE will give you 'foo' is there is not a overriding form element. I did not expect this, thinking that readAttribute would be normalizing these behaviors, but IE sigh. This tied me up for a little while. Thanks to jdalton and tobie on FreeNode for the help. ----- Internet Explorer IE Firefox FF Element.readAttribute() readAttribute() String [object] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype: Core" group.
