Hixie’s trying to standardize innerHTML. One simple test gives five different results in 4½ different browsers. I don’t understand how he stays sane.

    One simple test
    That is not a simple test.

    It is simple in the sense that it’s the shortest complete HTML document he could possibly inject.

    What happens if you add … to the innerHTML string?

    …innerHTML = ‘AB’

    (Ignore spaces…)

    Also, I think this is worth a Mozilla bug as Firefox’s results are not nominal. The “InnerHTML” view in Mozilla’s (Well, I’m using SeaMonkey, but still…) is not the same code as you’re sending.
