The property is read/write. The property has no default value.
Expressions can be used in place of the preceding value(s), as of Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5. For more information, see About Dynamic Properties .
Remarks
The innerText property is valid for block elements only. By definition, elements that do not have both an opening and closing tag cannot have an innerText property.
The innerText property is read-only on the html , table , tBody , tFoot , tHead , and tr objects.
When the innerText property is set, the given string completely replaces the existing content of the object.
You can set this property only after the onload event fires on the window . When dynamically creating a tag using TextRange , innerHTML , or outerHTML , use Microsoft® JScript® to create new events to handle the newly formed tags. Microsoft Visual Basic® Scripting Edition (VBScript) is not supported.
You can change the value of the title element using the document .title property.
To change the contents of the table , tFoot , tHead , and tr elements, use the table object model. For example, use the rowIndex property or the rows collection to retrieve a reference to a specific table row. You can add or delete rows using the insertRow and deleteRow methods. To retrieve a reference to a specific cell, use the cellIndex property or the cells collection. You can add or delete rows using the insertCell and deleteCell methods. To change the content of a particular cell, use the innerHTML property.
Example
This example uses the innerText property to replace an object's contents. The object surrounding the text is not replaced.
