There is the view.getMCRef() method which returns a reference to the
view's div (or movieclip if you're in Flash). It's expedient, but
dangerous - so your mileage may vary!
I filed an improvement request to give this method a better name:

I don't agree. Modifying innerHTML of DIVs is really valuable for mixed
runtime applications, or components which are re-used across runtimes
(Flash Google maps and Ajax Google Maps, for example).
Using iFrames adds complexity in such a case. But you are right, poking
at internals is never safe, but in this case, adds some fun. :-)
Honestly, the more important DHTML runtime becomse, the greater is the
need for simple DOM modification inside OpenLaszlo apps. @Max: what do
you think?

Obviously, you are free to do so, because it's open source, but the
sprite API is an internal API.
What's wrong with the <html> tag, which is the supported way to embed
html in LZX? It would be better to improve that to meet your needs,
if possible.

There as a question in the forum on how you can attach custom HTML
code to a view, not using the HTML tag.

I suggested to do:
<canvas proxied="true">
<view id="targetview" width="320" height="260" />
<handler name="oninit">
<![CDATA[
var player="<embed type='application/x-shockwave-flash'
src='http://videodetective.net/flash/players/player4.3.132.swf?customerid=120000&publishedid=88 8439&playerid=69&pversion=4&playlistid=0&videokbra
te=750&sub=&debug='
pluginspage='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer' allowScriptAccess='always'
flashvars='allowFullScreen=true' allowfullscreen='true' height='260'
width='320'></embed>";
targetview.sprite.__LZdiv.innerHTML = player;
Debug.write(targetview.sprite.__LZdiv);
]]>
</handler>
</canvas>
Is that something which should be done? Seems to work...
