Hi all,
Are there any (seriously) bad implications of having empty DIVs around your
HTML document? I try to avoid using them personally, but there are cases
where the visual design has forced me to add empty divs (or spans) just to
achieve the look.
Apart from adding extra weight and cluttering

illustrating the simplest parts of the language. Usage of document.write
should be banned from day one. Encourage the readers to test simple

I wouldn't worry about document.write examples too much.
You just need to keep in mind that the book is designed to teach the

Haha, thanks. But I also do appreciate the long answers though; thanks
