I'm amazed at how many people don't use a very simple shortcut for document.getElementById. This is for all the people who don't use a javascript library like jQuery.

Example Code: <html> ...
function $(element) { return document.getElementById(element); }
document.getElementById('id');
<html>

In an earlier attempt to solve the problem, I created a script based on the idea that ...

While surfing on the Internet I found this page on how to pass data from one page to another. After a while, I realized that the script used on the page actually contains a technique (implicitly) for deferring document.write. Just for the fun of it, I modified the script so as to have some easy ways of dynamically inserting internal and external content into a given div via document.write. Here it is: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function HttpRequest(url){ var pageRequest ...
