Tricky question about referencing div tags, innerHTML, etc....

[klopklopasa]

Below, is it possible to check to see if "somedivtag" exists prior to
running a innerHTML, in a IF ELSE situation?

like


if parent.somedivtag exists then {

document.all["somedivtag'']....

} else {

.....

Yes...

if (document.getElementById("somedivtag")==null)) {
document.writeln('this div doesn't exist');
}
