I used document.write()
until I switched to XHTML and Firefox complained about it.
When I researched the problem it was an “OMG I’m that far behind” moment. And that was years ago.
I spread myself thin and it has become more difficult, if not impossible, to keep up with even one technology let alone the many I have interest in.
At first the createElement()
, setAttribute()
and appendChild()
et al. seemed more verbose than was needed, but now I am comfortable with it and it comes naturally.
