setting cell contents to bold 1

[mattquantic]

Hi, I have a function that highlights a cell using:

   function highlightTableCell( cellName , color )
   {
      document.getElementById( cellName ).style.backgroundColor=color;

   }

But, when I try to change the color of the text or bold it will not let me:

   function highlightTableCell( cellName , color )
   {
      document.getElementById( cellName ).style.backgroundColor=color;
      document.getElementById( cellName ).style=font-weight='bold';   
      document.getElementById( cellName ).style.cursor='hand';   
      document.getElementById( cellName ).style.color='#ffffff';         
   }

Is my syntax wrong or something?

M@?

try

      document.getElementById( cellName ).style.fontWeight='bold';

hope that helps out

FYI:

My favorite CSS reference:

Scroll down the page to 'fontWeight' (or search for 'fontWeight') and see how informative this site is!

also i think you could make general style classes and use style.className = "class1" on mouse over and on mouseout style.className = "class0" ( back to normal )

opos .. not style.className it's pageobj.className like :

document.hyperlinkA.className

Sorry, so I could use:

document.#theelementid#.className ='#MyClass#';

?

 

[mattquantic]

so I can use?

document.MyElementID.className ='MyClass';

?

 

[BillyRayPreachersSon]

document.getElementById('yourElementID').className = 'MyClass';

should work.
