Replace function

[chebbi]

Hi All

How do u replace a string with a html tag?i need to replace a part of innerHTML text with a font tag. For example if i need to replace text inside a table cell(plain cell with only text in it) by grabbing its value using innerHTML property how do i replace say first 3 characters with a font tag using a replace function?

I don't see that you would need to use the replace function. You could do this to replace the first three characters and add your font tag:
<table><tr>
<td id=cell>123MyText</td>
</tr></table>
<script>
var td=document.body.getElementsByID(&quot;cell&quot;
td.innerHTML=&quot;<font color=red>&quot;+td.innerHTML.substring(3)+&quot;</font>&quot;;
</script>
