Hi,

I am using the below js code in order to change the class when a link is clicked.

document.getElementById("gifts").setAttribute("class", "gkvSprite selected");

This is not working in IE but it does in FF and Chrome Then I changed the code to :

document.getElementById("gifts").setAttribute("className", "gkvSprite selected");

Then it worked in IE stopped working in FF and Chrome.

Could someone please help me out here?

Thanks in Advance
