The following works in IE but not in Firefox, I have no idea why..

I can add alert( container ) and it shows the data corrrectly, so that reference is working ok,

appendChild() is compatible with Mozilla, so that should be ok too,

when put in a try/catch it doesn't give any errors. :(


Code:
<html>

<head>
<title> element add test </title>
<script language="javascript">
function test( objContainer ) {
objElement = document.createElement( "<textarea style=\"width: 100%;\" name\"consolehistory\" cols=\"120\" rows=\"6\" readonly=\"true\">" );
objContainer.appendChild( objElement );
}
</script>
</head>

<body>

<form onclick="test( this )"> CLICK HERE FOR TEST </form>

</body>

</html>


Any thoughts?

Figured out how to do it properly a while ago:

ifrm = document.createElement( "IFRAME" );
ifrm.setAttribute( "name", "consolehistory" );
ifrm.setAttribute( "cols", "120" );
ifrm.setAttribute( "rows", "6" );
ifrm.setAttribute( "readonly", "true" );
ifrm.style.width = 100 + "%";
document.body.appendChild( ifrm );
