That wasn't available in IE, the last I heard. Has that changed?

Hi,
I understand the difference between class and ID to a basic level. I
am adding a #div but I may want to add another later. Therefore I
should use class but what is the danger if I use a class - is it
slower, does something cache that may not if it's an ID - what's the
real difference

Well, you can't use getElementById (obviously), but you can use

But there is nothing really wrong with a combination of both:-
code
div id=this1 class=content

Why should class be used to define an element vs. id? I'm sure each one
should be used in different situations, and would like more information
on making the right choice. Do child elements inherit properties from
there parent class? from there parent id? Any links to information on
this
Technically, ids should only be declared once in a page, and classes can be

You use classes for styling similar elements.
ie:
class=externalLink
class=topItem
class=message
However, you only need an id / class

I don't think that is going to get much of a reponse as it is so basic
