Thanks for your answer, it's an interesting idea. However, we need to
support version 3 browsers, and I don't think they support CSS.
I was also thinking of something along the lines of updating values, like
you can in a form. For example you can set the "VALUE" attribute in <INPUT
TYPE="TEXT" ...> through JavaScript, except that I don't want it to be an
editable text field, just a plain piece of text. Can you somehow do that?
Thanks, Petr

Unfortunately this does not work. The browser only parses through
the
HTML once. While theoretically possible to have Javascript change
the
code, the browser will not parse the new HTML. Thus it is a moot
point.
You might want to look into Cascading Style Sheets(CSS). They might
be
able to do want you want. They are extremely powerful especially
when
combined with Javascript.
