How to get value of a div using javascript

by

DIVs do not have a value property.

Technically, according to the DTDs, they shouldn’t have a value attribute either, but generally you’ll want to use .getAttribute() in this case:

function overlay()
{
    var cookieValue = document.getElementById('demo').getAttribute('value');
    alert(cookieValue);
}
