One of the coolest I have chased and read over Internet (comparing to msdn or devhead sites).

BUT CHECK OUT: there is one thing you didnt care about much. All included examples (coolest) are texts without using style (CSS). I tried to dynamicly change content like this in nn4 before. It will switch any previously "styled" text to ugly plain Times New Roman. And there is no chance to assign my style dynamicly. So i had to decline to a show'n'hide of as many objects (#ID's) as many the contents there were. Which is sad.

Or is it possible somehow to preserve style and change the content in nn4?

Thanks and keep doing this perfect site.

This is the first DHTML article which broke the issues up sufficiently in order for me to grasp what DHTML is and, just as important, what it isn't.

Thank you!

Thanks.

Great article - do you know if there is a way of refering to an object from a javascript function without passing in a reference to the object (in Netscape)

something along the lines of:

function myFunc(){
if (document.all)
txt.innerHTML = "Some text"
else if (document.layers) {
txt.document.open();
txt.document.write("Some Text");
txt.document.close();

}

<font id="txt">Hello</font>

<font onmouseover="myFunc">Put your mouse over here!</font>

Help!!

in NN4, altering content with the "open(), write(newhtml), close()" layer methods leaks 5x as much memory as is written to the layer.
