Good morning,
You might want to take a look at a javascript library like JQuery.
Admittedly there s a learning curve, but it can simplify some of wha
you are trying to do.
See http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/x-ajaxjquery.html

Hello guys. While reading a document on the w3c site, I came across
a set of xhtml items which described some things to do and others to
avoid. Amongst the things to avoid was the use for the innerHTML.
Now when using AJAX this is what I use to import html from another
file into my current page, like so:
var x=document.getElementById("div_name");
x.innerHTML=xhr.responseText;
Now 2 questions:
1. Why stop using innerHTML, I believe I read somewhere that it's
proprietary and that it's not recommended by w3c, not sure. Is this
so? Will it also be depricated?
2. If we can't use innerHTML, is there another way of importing
preformatted html text into an element such as a div using AJAX??? I
know the dom methods can be used, but man! That'll be a lot of
coding and adding and removing childNodes! lol.
I was looking online for alternative and read that you can tell the
browser what content/MimeType the server will be sending back to it
in the xml http request, but couldn't find how to do this... Any
help appreciated!
Thanks, D!J!X!
