It used to be that Microsoft was the big baddie in personal computing. We all used Windows- Internet Explorer and Microsoft Office. Big Bad Bill controlled our digital lives. But now Sweet William is giving his money away- we can use Firefox- OpenOffice and maybe even Linux.

But Google is omnipresent [technical people may want to look at how many web pages have Google-Analytics JavaScript running on them secretly - I d guess at about 75%].

Is it time to declare a new bete noir?

Or do I need to just calm down and get a life?

You decide!

javascript using web page have disabled the "Source" option under the "View" menu item on the menu bar

Hello- I want to create Dynamic DIV elements without using innerHTML.

Here s the code that I am currently working with:

<script language="Javascript">
var i=1;
function creatediv()
{
mNewObj = document.createElement( div );
mNewObj.id = "BOX" + i;
mNewObj.style.backgroundColor="red"
mNewObj.innerText = "Box " + i;
document.getElementById(tid).appendChild(mNewObj);
alert(mNewObj.innerText);
i++;
}
</script>

<div id="tid">ghjghk</div>
<form method="post">
<input type="button" value="Create Box" onclick="creatediv()">
</form>

It does not create DIV elements when I click the button. Please help!!!
I am unable to see your full answers. Yahoo displays a partial code and displays "...."

So please email your code to sundaripaul [at] yahoo [dot] com.
