| ctcrmcou on Feb 21, 2004 at 8:33:57 AM (# 9) I couldn't agree more - but a minor tweak, in this case can make a difference, at least for now (by innerHTML-ing the outer div). So as I understand it Netscape 7 has migrated into Mozilla to produce the Firebird, Firefox browsers? I do see that Firebird works better, although I do notice those typical "netscape" characteristics from time to time during rendering.

PITA. You have my honest pity.
Do you at least get danger pay? =]
jreeder on Feb 23, 2004 at 11:26:58 AM (# 12)Netscape I think donated their code several years ago to the open source Mozilla project, thus the similarities. Mozilla is a quantum leap ahead of where the Netscape browser was when Netscape quit, far more DOM compliant unless you force IE into compliance mode with a DOCTYPE declaration and I feel nicer overall, but that is just my opinion. Ironically, I develop on an intranet site with a user base 100% IE.
As far as your question,I don't know whether you are looking for a philosophical answer or a practical one. The following will insert a row and cell into your table under IE (which sucks but I can deal with it):
row=tbl.insertRow();
cell=row.insertCell();
cell.innerText="hello";
You can set all the other properties of the cell and create custom attributes also with the syntax cell.[property]="whatever", you can also use innerHTML instead of innerText. Incidentally, this is DOM level 1 standard.
For the philosophical answer you have to call M$ and ask their developers.

You don't mean innerHTML, do you? It's definitely not DOM standard.

This message has been edited.My bad...I misspoke. innerHTML and innerText are not DOM standard but supported by IE and NS6+ and Mozilla, thanks for the correction.
jreeder on Feb 24, 2004 at 7:59:24 AM (# 15)Well, maybe Mozilla and NS. I can't seem to get it to work in Mozilla but I am not very familiar with it anyway. Works fine under IE though...
I'll just shut up now...the hole is getting rather deep. :-)
