hey all,

Could someone please tell me how can i change the background colour of a text in any container which is added using javascript. For example if i've the following code

Code:

      <html>
      <head><title>JavaScript</title>
      </head>
      <body>

        <div id = 'text'> </div>

        <script language='javascript'>

        function addText() {     

          var mycars = new Array()
          mycars[0] = "Saab"
          mycars[1] = "Volvo"
          mycars[2] = "BMW"
             
          var obj = document.getElementById("scroll_text")
      
          for (i=0;i<mycars.length;i++)
          {

              var mytext=document.createTextNode(mycars[i] + " ")                      
              obj.appendChild(mytext)     

          }

          var ochildNodes = obj.childNodes

          var len = ochildNodes.length          

          // i would like this line to work but it doesn't
          ochildNodes[0].style.backgroundColor="#0000FF"

        }

        addText()

      </script>

      </body>

      </html>

Is it possible to change the background colour of specified childnode? Thanking in avdance!
