That is quite a bit different from innerHTML. Having said that, I don't see how the Element.write() suggestion is different from markupContent apart from the fact that one is a method and the other an attribute. Still has the same duplication problem in my opinion. > I note that document.write() is not allowed for XML documents, I don't > remember the reason can someone clarify? http://ln.hixie.ch/?count=1&start=1091626816 -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/Received on Monday, 27 July 2009 15:31:59 GMT
