There is an entry for Firefox? I do not see it... oh wait...
You made it an overflow! I just now realized there is something beyond Mozilla 1.5 on Win
ME. Hehe...

XP SP2. I must be missing something. For example:
document.getElementsByTagName('p')[0].innerHTML = 'Woof!';
....works just fine in Firefox 1.5.0.11. I guess more specifically though:
first_p = document.getElementsByTagName('p')[0];
first_p.innerHTML = '<script src="innerHTML.js" type="text\/javascript"><\/script>';
Whilst the first P does have the updated innerHTML, it does not allow access to that
script's contents. Bummer.
OK, maybe I am not missing anything. Heh.
