Hi , why this not work ; I want to change the color of The textarea
exemple:

The URL to your page would be helpful.

<input style="background:#33CC33" value=" " onClick="
document.titre.exemple. backGroundcolor = #33CC33 " type="button" />

I pasted your code into a page, and it worked for me (oddly enough). Why
is the JavaScript there, and why is there a space after the misspelled
word "exemple".

<input style="background:#33CC33" value=" This is a button "
onClick="document.titre.exemple.backGroundcolor = #33CC33" type="button"
/>

Why the bogus XHTML slash at the end? [ /> ]

 

[Beauregard T. Shagnasty]

Oh, wait. Your prose says "color of The textarea"... yet your code is of
type="button". What is it you really want?

The URL to your page would be helpful.

...and the above reinforces that statement, eh? A more concise Subject
line would be advised as well. Perhaps "Trouble with button color"

Start by checking your spelling.

TITLE not titre
EXAMPLE not exemple

Caps in attributes may cause problems as well.
background not backGround.

I believe he is attempting to change the color of the "text area" when
the original block is clicked upon.

I believe he is attempting to change the color of the "text area"
when the original block is clicked upon.

I thought that as well, but discarded it as both color values are the
same.

TITLE not titre <-- might be in his native language^1
EXAMPLE not exemple <-- probably wrong

Caps in attributes may cause problems as well.
background not backGround.

'Cept that's JavaScript, where camelCase is used.

Well, it would help if you have an and I knew the id for the textarea.
Let's give it "txar", then try this -

<input style="background:#33CC33" value=" " onClick="
document.getElementById('txar').style.background='#cc33cc'"
type="button" />
