What i want to do is to first enabled a disabled text box, and then focus and select all the contents of this text box after the user clicks on a checkbox, i have it working with simple HTML and Javascript but how can i do to get the similar result using the DOM??? For simplicity i only include this code that works:
CODE
<html>
<head>
&lt;script type="text/javascript">
function toggle(formname,checkname)
{
var c="CantField";
if(checkname.checked==true) {
    checkname.value="on";
    document.f[c].disabled=false;
    document.f[c].focus();
    document.f[c].select();
}
else {
    checkname.value="off";
    document.f[c].value="0";
    document.f[c].disabled=true;
}
return;
}
function init()
{
document.f.CantField.disabled = true;
}

// using DOM
function initD()
{
document.getElementById('CantField').setAttribute("disabled",true);
}

function toggleD(formname,checkname)
{
var c="CantField";
if(checkname.checked==true) {
    document.getElementById(checkname).setAttribute("value","on");
    document.getElementById(c).setAttribute("disabled",false);
    document.getElementById(c).focus();
    document.getElementById(c).select();
}
else {
    document.getElementById(checkname).setAttribute("value","off");
    document.getElementById(c).setAttribute("disabled","true");
    document.getElementById(c).setAttribute("value","0");
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="init()">
<form name="f" action="page.php" method="post" >
<input type="checkbox" value="off" name="CheckField" id="CheckField" onclick="toggle('f',this)" />
<input type="text" name="CantField" id="CantField" value="0" />
<input type="submit" value="Check Out" name="submitCar" /> <input type="button" value="Cancel" name="cancelCar" onclick="java script:this.form.reset();">
</form>
</body>
</html>


I know that this code must be optimizied but it is only for simplicity because it is a very heavy form.

When I use the toggleD() function the select method dont work, why happens this??? Am I doing something wrong???

Best regards,

EDIT:
Well, i can't find a solution to the DOM problem so i decide to not use it basically because the select() doesn't work in any manner, if someone get the solution please post it.
