I feel like I'm chasing my tail on

[rubychyld]

I feel like I'm chasing my tail on this... hope someone can help. I am trying to loop through all the span tags on my asp page by using the following...

var objSpans = document.all.tags("span"
alert(objSpans.length)

however this alert returns "0". I know this is not true, and I've tried it with other common tags like "p" and "td" etc. and still returns "0".

how do I assign all the span tags to an object?

Thanks a million, Liz Catch the vigorous horse of your mind!

Not sure which browsers this works in, but I use:

spans_array = document.getElementsByTagName("SPAN" jared@eae.net -

hi rubychyld be shure 2 call this function onload..
function spanlength(){
var objSpans = document.all.tags("span"
alert(objSpans.length)
}
onload=spanlength

or after ur spans, not in the very begining of ur page (that was my main error - callin such things in the body tag, in the process of page parsing..)
