You can use nodeValue to access the value of a node, however the value of a div. In your example you might have the following HTML...

<div id=myLovelyDiv>This is the text that you want to change</div>

and this script...

var myDiv = getElementById(myLovelyDiv);

myDiv.childNodes[0].nodeValue = The text has been changed.;

but I fail to see why you wouldn't use

myDiv.innerHTML = The text has been changed properly.;
