Exactly :) and it DOES work! (pft, you dare to question my DHTML Godliness,
young whipper snapper!) :D

Its how you do it in flashmx aswell (kind of). Your pinning your hopes on
the fact that the "border" is an actual object with an identifier in DOM
which it isn't. Its just a property value for whatever object you attach it
to, then basically tells the browser to render with a black border around
it.

Its just like saying a tables border="1" should be an object, but its just a
property / parameter to an existing object and what your wanting to do is
hijack the internal methods within the table object that render its state.

If you want to reference a border that can be referenced your going to have
to cheat / use slight of hand to achieve this. No1 said DOM was a perfect
solution.

Furthermore if you want to resize an object within DOM your using the cheat
style approach (I.e. telling the browser to ignore selectable regions,
changing the cursor, repaint the screen on a mousemove and so on). DOM
wasn't exactly made for a GUI desktop approach (sadly) and in order to
achieve these goals we have to trick the browser thus nesting.

Suck it up son and accept it :D
