insertAdjacentHTML and removeChild
NN6 has similar features:
<DIV ID="mydiv">...</DIV>
is scripted as
var mydiv = document.getElementById('mydiv');
You can then navigate the document subtree with
mydiv.nextSibling
mydiv.previousSibling
mydiv.firstChild
mydiv.lastChild
mydiv.childNodes
e.g.
mydiv.removeChild(mydiv.lastChild)
To insert HTML in the document tree you need to parse it first into a
document fragment:
var range = document.createRange();
range.setStartAfter(mydiv.lastChild);
var documentFragment = range.createContextualFragment(htmlstring));
which you can then insert into the document tree
mydiv.appendChild(documentFragment);
To check for the existence of an IDed element you check
var el;
if ((el = document.getElementById('elementID'))
// script el
