document.all.mydiv.innerText = sum does not work in Firefox -what to do?

[Klaus Jensen]

Hi

I use this code:

document.all.mydiv.innerText = sum;

to show a calculated value (sum) in a div (your typical running sum thingy).

It works great in IE, but not in Firefox. What to do?

innerText is IE only

document.all is nearly so

use:
<div id='myDiv'>...

and:
document.getElementById('myDiv').innerHTML = sum;
