Hi,
Two very related questions.

a) On clicking a hyperlink control I need to be able to GET the text of the
control. How can I do this?
b) How can I then SET the text of the hyperlink control to something else?

This can;t be hard but is so far eluding me (new to JS - managed to get by
without it for years!)

Many thanks!

the hyperlink is an anchor.

var hl = document.getElementById('<%=myHyperlink.ClientID%>');
var oldText = hl.innerHTML;
hl.innerHTML = '<b>new text</b>';
