With IE works fine. But With Mozilla it won't work

function sortTable( ao_table, ai_sortcol, ab_header )

var ir, ic, is, ii, id;

Hi i have the following code and it's working fine for IE... But with
Mozilla it doesn't work. Also it didn't gave any error message too...

Does anyone know how i can make it work for both the browsers.

thanks

innerText is an IE invention that is not widely supported - Firefox
doesn't, it uses the W3C equivalent textContent. You might find
innerHTML does the trick for a cross-browser solution. You might also
look at a function that feature detects for textContent/innerText/whatever:

I tried with innerHTML as well. but it won't work though...

function sortTable( ao_table, ai_sortcol, ab_header )
{
var ir, ic, is, ii, id;

ir = ao_table.rows.length;

if( ir < 1 ) return;

ic = ao_table.rows[1].cells.length;
// if we have a header row, ignore the first row
if( ab_header == true ) is=1; else is=0;

// take a copy of the data to shuffle in memory
var row_data = new Array( ir );
ii=0;
for( i=is; i < ir; i++ )
{
var col_data = new Array( ic );
for( j=0; j < ic; j++ )
{
col_data[j] = ao_table.rows.cells[j].innerText;

Thank you very much RobG. I worked around that and made it work ....
btw i had to change innerText to innerHTML as well. You helped me to do
it. thanks.
