[Phpwm] need a bit of javascript help

[Phil Beynon]

Hi,
Need a bit of help with some javascript please.

I'm using a collapsing tree navigation system called dtree (inside a tabview
system) and building the data array for it directly from PHP against my
knowledgebase tables, the dtree and tabview stuff all works just fine, I
figured that all out perfectly.

What I would like to do though is to redirect the output away from the way
dtree displays the data into a floating popup box that the user can position
and resize as wanted.
I can see that I need to write to the popup by sending the data to a named
<span> or <div> tag (Text) placed within the popup, what I can't do is to
get it to do it by itself, so that whenever the dtree menu is expanded or
collaped the changes are reflected within the popup.

The document.write(h); line writes the data within its own <div> tag just
fine, and I can force a write to the popup using the <input> button onclick
bit at the end - but what I can't get my head around is why the
"document.getElementById("Text").innerHTML = h;" doesnt just write it into
the popup box as it gets to it.

I've removed a load of the array data for clarity as its big. The full code
is at;

document.write(h);
document.getElementById("Text").innerHTML = h;
//-->
</script>
<hr>

<script type="text/javascript">
function WriteText()
{
document.getElementById("Text").innerHTML = h;
}
</script>

<input type="button" value="Write to window" onclick="WriteText()"/>
