Unable to get Value from insertCell element

[kopite]

Hi,

I am unable to extract the value out of the input box that has been creating dynamically - how do I do this:

Code:

var tbl = document.getElementById("myTbl");
var tr = tbl.insertRow();
var td = tr.insertCell(0);

td.innerHTML = "<input type='text'>";
td.setAttribute("id","myCell");

I type in say "8998" into the box but how I can extract it as when I do this it returns "undefined"..

alert(document.getElementById("myCell").value) returns "undefined"

Help!

you are setting the 'myCell" id for the TD not for the input element..you need to set the id for input element

Apologies.. yep i put the id on the cell element instead of the input box element... took me a few hours to see that !!
