[Javascript] HTML Tag that can hold data for JavaScript?

[Allard Schripsema]

Hi,
You can use any tag you want including the <input type=hidden> tag
Give it a name or id and you can get the document.objectname.atributename
without any trouble.

What I'd like to do is create a tag that holds data that I can access in
Javascript like this:
<mycustomtag myProp1="myValue1" myProp2="myValue2"/>

but I don't know how to access the properties in js. I enumerated and
there was no properties. Is there a tag that exists that I can use? I
need it to be hidden because I only want to access it from js.

Judah
