Re: Changing text

try the following:


function togLit()
{
    if (a==0 || a==1)
    {
        name.outerHTML="<font size=+1>HELLLLP</font>";
        a=2;
    }
    else
    {
        name.outerHTML="<font size=+2>HELLLLP</font>";
        a=1;
    }
}

>ooops sorry. That was just a typo in this message.
