    "for loop" works in FF but not in IE

    In this for loop, IE skips over the animation function until the end of the
    loop and only aninmates the last phrase. Firefox does it right. Loop is
    right below, entire script is below that. This script uses the Yahoo GUI
    library (beta) for animation.

    for (var c=0; c < index; c++) {
    document.getEle mentById("sampl e").innerTex t = myArray[c];
    var myanim = new YAHOO.util.Anim ('sample', {
    fontSize: {from: 0, to: 50},
    opacity: {from: 0.5, to: 1}
    }, 2);
    myanim.animate( );

    if (c >= myArray.length)
    c=0;
    };
    };

      Firefox executes that statement without a syntax error? I ask because FF
      doesn't support innerText in any form unless you create it yourself.

          Sounds like he's not using the javascript console

              Re: &quot;for loop&quot; works in FF but not in IE

              heheh, firefox did much better than IE. innerText has been incorporated into
              several browsers besides IE. I know it's not standards compliant. I am doing
              it entirely different now, using innerhtml. Also not standards compliant.
              thanks guys.
