Another simple usage for innerHTML: the DHTML Preview

Playing around the other day, I found yet another use for accessing/setting the innerHTML of a container tag: a DHTML Preview.

Upon entering text (or preferably HTML/DHTML) in the following textarea, the onkeydown, onkeyup, and onblur events trigger the preview function:

function p(src, targ) {

    targ.innerHTML = src.value;
}

This function then, as designed, sets the div preview to the epected markup via setting the innerHTML of said container document.



Feel free to play around, and as always, let me know what you think! For a direct link: dhtml_preview.html
