getting properties of dynamically created content

[noyearzero]

i've used javascript to dynamically create an image in a document. now i want to grab the .fileSize from that image. doing a regular call doesn't work, however if i do an alert('anything') before i grab the fileSize it will work. its like it has to refresh to registered nodes? is there maybe a way to do this without using a tacky alert()?

i used replaceChild to create the image if that makes a difference.

This is really hacky but it forcing a refresh of the inner html might do it.

document.getElementById('THE_ID').innerHTML = document.getElementById('THE_ID').innerHTML

Did you dynamically create the image, or dynamically load it in? If it's dynamically created, is there any possibility of creating the image in php or asp? If the image already exists, you can use php or asp to get the filesize ... from what I remember, fileSize isnt available to javascript from Firefox.
