Change Value of Input

[Spunky]

var contentString = '<div id="infoContent">'+					'<strong>'+address+','+price+','+'Mortgage: '+mortgage+' Taxes: '+taxes+' Year: '+year+'</strong>'+					'#<span id="number">'+house_number+'</span>'+					'</div>'+					'<a href="#edit"><span onClick="editDetails()">edit</span></span>';					house_number++					return contentString;}

This code is returned to a function that creates a Info Window in a Google Map to appear when the user clicks on a marker on the map. The next set of code is what editDetails() does.

function editDetails(){		var data_edit = "<div id="houseDetails">";	data_edit+=		"<div id="details">";	data_edit+=		"<h4>Details</h4>";	data_edit+=		"Price:<input type="text" id="price" value="" class="boxsize">";	data_edit+=		"Mortgage:<input type="text" id="mortgage" value="" class="boxsize">";    data_edit+=		"</div>";	data_edit+=		"</div>";		document.getElementById("data_edit").innerHTML = data_edit;	document.getElementById("data_edit").style.display = "block";	document.getElementById("new_address").style.display = "hidden";	thishouse = document.getElementById("number").innerHTML;	  	document.getElementById('price').value = "hi";  	document.getElementById('mortgage').value = myhouses[thishouse].mortgage;}

All those input textboxes appear and then I am attempting to change the value in the textboxes. The first one shows:

document.getElementById('price').value = "hi";

Just as a test because I am otherwise not sure why it is not working. If I alert:

myhouses[thishouse].mortgage

The expected value does appear, so that is not an issue. The issue is, why does the value not change?

There's probably an error message on the console. Although, why not just set the value in the HTML when you create the element?

Lol I do not know. Doh! But it worked so thanks.

 

Oh and I forgot to mention that there was no error on the console. Usually I think of it cuz there is an error but this time there wasn't. It just, did nothing.
