FireFox/innerHTML and <area> tags

[Brad]

I've been trying to set the content of a div tag with a image map for
example
<div name='ImageMapLayer'>
<map>
<area></area>
</map>
</div>

I've tried using both innerHTML and DOM. I can set it with DOM but
sometimes the image map works and sometimes it doesn't. innerHTML
does not appear to work at all. Does anyone have a work around. By
the way I'm trying to do this in firefox (mozilla).

Thanks,

Brad

Where is your code that is executing the script?
You might have to place an additional script at the end of your html
code that calls the script as the elements of page maynot be defined
when you actually call the script.

<!-- end of html code. Now for addition script -->
<script type="text/javascript">
call_my_function();
</script>
</body>
</html>
