Ok, some stupid error somewhere, can anyone figure why this isn't displaying the date reformatted?



<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">

function dateStyle(targetDate){
var inputDate = document.getElementById(targetDate).innerHTML;
var day = inputDate.slice(0,2);
var month = inputDate.slice(3,5);
document.getElementById(targetDate).innerHTML = "("+day + "/" + month +")";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="dateInput">09/12/2008 10:37:12</div>
<script type="text/javascript">dateStyle(dateInput)</script>


</body>
</html>

Hi there wuffy77,

pop some quotes in here....
<script type="text/javascript">dateStyle('dateInput')</script>
