(I've left out a few functions to shorten the post.)
When I call writeLayer with a body onload the <div> get updated.
<body onload="javascript:writeLayer('overallRating','40')">
But when I call updateRating, which then calls writeLayer, from the onload the <div> never is updated.
<body onload="javascript:updateRating(40)">
I know the function is being run because I can add an alert which is displayed.
Anyone know why the <div> wouldn't be updated?
(sorry about the formatting, I can't get spaces or tabs to work)
