If innerHTML doesn't display, it may mean that your JavaScript has stopped working internally. What browser are you using? Is this the only script you have on the page? Only partial code of the page won't help...

Take a look at the code

function checkemail(){
if (document.suform.email.value && document.suform.emailcheck.value)
{
if (document.suform.email.value == document.suform.emailcheck.value)
{
document.suform.emailcheck.style.backgroundColor='#FFFFFF';
document.getElementById('wm').innerHTML=='Emails Match!';
}else{
document.suform.emailcheck.style.backgroundColor='#F75B53';
document.getElementById('wm').innerHTML=='Emails Dont Match!';
}
}
}

You have an 'is equal to' instead of an equal to (=). Make this change and you should be OK.

You can use onblur or onfocus, onchange is for select box.
