Hi, Sounds like you're new to Prototype - welcome!
When working with Prototype DOM extensions, you have to use $() to get the element unless you got it from a Prototype method (in which case, Prototype has already done it for you). Here's why: http://prototypejs.org/learn/extensions So just change document.body.update('Foo'); to $(document.body).update('Foo'); (But do read the link, so you know why.) HTH, -- T.J.
