Syntax issue

[EchoFool]

Hey,

 

I have a div which is linked with my JS script but im getting a syntax error for my function but not sure why... here is the function in JS

 

function dochatbox(){  

var chatbox = document.getElementById('chatdiv');  
// var chatbox = 'chatdiv';
chatbox.scrollTop = chatbox.scrollHeight; 

} 

 

My div:

            <div id="chatbox" > 
              <div id="chatdiv" style="border : solid 0px   padding : 1px; width : 100%; height : 70px; overflow : auto;"> 
                <? echo stripslashes($chat); ?>
              </div>
            </div>

 

 

But i get this error:

 

syntax error

http://localhost/js/javascript.php

Line 5

[break on this error] var chatbox = document.getElementById('chatdiv'); \n

 

Any one know what i got wrong?

Try using double quotes.

Single or double quotes shouldn't matter...

 

 

If changing it to double quotes, can we see more code?
