Add html string to DOM as element

rated 0 times [ 199] [ 3] / answers: 1 / hits: 17591 / 15 Years ago, tue, february 9, 2010, 12:00:00

Is there anyway to create a string and add to the DOM? And having Javascript to understand the elements in the string?

I tried the below and 4th line gives error:

var bmdiv = document.createElement('div');

bmdiv.setAttribute('id', 'myDiv');

var str = <b>aa</b>;

bmdiv.innerHTML(str);

I need to add several tags in str to the DIV myDiv

I need NOT to use jQuery since the script will not load jQuery
Thanks.

The innerHTML property is not a function, you should assign it like this:

var bmdiv = document.createElement('div');

bmdiv.setAttribute('id', 'myDiv');

var str = <b>aa</b>;

bmdiv.innerHTML = str;
