[Javascript] netscape: how to write to <div> tag??

Wed Jun 27 05:16:21 CDT 2001

Well, I tend to think of if it as a page within a page in the same window.

ie

<html>
<!--other required tags in CSS to define the divs-->

<div id =div1>Content1</div>
<div id =div2>Content2</div>
<div id =div3>Content3</div>
</html>

Then using Javascript you can manipulate the divs, hide them, move them,
write
to them etc.
