NP. As I said, I was not really interested in hearing about innerHTML (been
there done that). That was not the purpose of my post.
In short, I wanted to know if this (for "small nodes" of course):
var objSpan=document.createElement('span');
while(obj.childNodes.length)objSpan.appendChild(obj.childNodes[0]);
obj.appendChild(objSpan);
Is better or not than this:
obj.innerHTML='<span>'+obj.innerHTML+'</span>'
And if not, why?
The thing is that if this solution is good/decent, I can change the "tone"
of the article so people can feel confident about using the method. Right
now, this article sounds more like I'm not even sure that it's worth using
it ;)
And that would help me remove the "smileys" from there too...
