innerHTML without the html, just text

rated 0 times [ 74] [ 3] / answers: 1 / hits: 52826 / 12 Years ago, thu, march 15, 2012, 12:00:00

I've created an e-mail link that automatically populates the necessary information in the body. But, when I do .innerHTML I get a little more than I bargained for.

I want March, 2012: 12-16

What I get March, 2012: 12 - 16

Is there a way to get the innerHTML without the html tags?

.value = undefined

.text = undefined

You want .textContent in all but older IE, and .innerText in IE (<9).

So, try:

string = (node.textContent===undefined) ? node.innerText : node.textContent;

EDIT: Or, just use GGG's much cleaner string = (node.innerText || node.textContent), since undefined is falsy.
