ajax bug in document.getElementById and $("#ID")

[newpat]

var html = $.ajax({

url: serverPage, async: false

}).responseText; if (html){

document.getElementById(objID).innerHTML=html; $("#dialog").dialog('open');

}else{

alert("Error!");

}

The above code can be runned perfectly (objID = "div1"), but the following code cannot update the "objID" div(objID = "#div1")

var html = $.ajax({

url: serverPage, async: false

}).responseText; if (html){

$(objID).innerHTML=html; $("#dialog").dialog('open');

}else{

alert("Error!");

}

Your code is invalid. There is no innerHTML property on jQuery objects. Use $(objID).html(html).
