JAVASCRIPT Code: [ Select ]
document.getElementById('list1').style.backgroundColor = "#00a94f";
document.getElementById('list1').style.color = "#000";
  1. document.getElementById('list1').style.backgroundColor = "#00a94f";
  2. document.getElementById('list1').style.color = "#000";


Does this look right?

I put it in my document and it doesn't seem to work, i'm not sure if I need a pound sign before the "list1" or not , but it looks right to me.

Looks fine to me. I'm thinking it's time to clean out the browser cache, then start looking elsewhere in the code if clearing the cache doesn't work.
Strong with this one, the sudo is.

Thanks! Though why would clearing the browser cache mess with the scripts functionality at all?

The browser may be running the site from the cache, not the file source.

Like Bogey mentioned, the browser may be using a cached version of the page. I've had times when I was only working with a single file that has my JS/CSS/etc inside that file where for some reason the browser was continuing to use the copy of the page from 3-4 edits ago.

I don't catch it when does that because those last few edits are small incremental changes to something that hasn't been tested yet, whereas everything else on the page is working correctly. I end up thinking I'm doing something wrong when in actuality I had it right before.

This may be kind of off topic, but... I was thinking, just for the hell of it, with jQuery, couldn't you do that in 1 line?

Code: [ Select ]
$('#list1').css('color','#000').css('backgroundColor','#00a94f');


Every time I think of writing stuff in 1 line, I think of perl... Then I cringe.

I believe jQueries css() method will accept an object.

JAVASCRIPT Code: [ Select ]
$('#list1').css({color:'#000', backgroundColor: '#00a94f'});
