[Javascript] innerHTML

[Esther_Strom at hmco.com]

I will keep my opinions of Microsoft to myself in an attempt to avoid
starting a war, but that statement isn't just misleading, it's flat-out
wrong. There's an article on MSDN (one of many, I'm sure) about
data-binding that uses innerHTML. The date on the article
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dndude/html/dude1103.asp)?

 November 1997, well before IE5 became available.

Maybe your article meant that the property is accessible other times in
previous versions, but only available at runtime in IE5. Who knows?

Sorry Esther, I should never read what Microsoft says (buncha rotten....).
MSDN is not always very clear...


     This property is accessible at run time, as of Microsoft® Internet
     Explorer 5. Removing elements at run time, before the closing tag is
     parsed, could prevent other areas of the document from rendering.


The statement is a bit misleading.

Actually innerHTML has been around since IE4, not 5.

innerHTML is a property first accessable within IE5, so if you need
backwards compatability it might not be the route to go. I'm not sure how
well it's supported by NN. NN6 might handle it, I've heard it can be
extremely buggy in NN4.x. A nice source of information can be found on the
Microsoft site. There is also a stellar example explanation on fellow
lister Peter-Paul Koch's site.

Can somebody please elaborate a little on "innerHTML". I have heard it
mentioned at various places. What does it do exactly? Is it part of
JavaScript, CSS, or what? Will appreciate a short summary or some good
links
on the topic.
Thanks in advance,
Hormuz
