How to retrive value from some tags

Priya

_spandiv("search").innerHTML
returns this - <P class=popUpTitle>SEARCH</P>

How can i retrive the title of this search pop-up from this.

dp

How about _getText(_spandiv("search"))

Priya

Thanks for the reply dp,

i can retrive from _getText,but how can i get the value from this tag because it is useful for me in other places.

i tried with _byClassName(className, tagName),but this didnt work for the value in tags.

Priya, could you elaborate on your requirement?

1) Do you want to get the text "SEARCH" from that span which I think is

<span><P class=popUpTitle>SEARCH</P></span>

? Or do you mean something else when you say "title of this search pop-up"?

2) When you say "i can retrive from _getText,but how can i get the value from this tag because it is useful for me in other places.", do you mean you want to store it in a variable for reuse? If yes, use _set. (Saying you can "retrieve" it but cannot "get" it is confusing)

3) What values did you use in _byClassName(className, tagName)? What error did you get?
