Basically, I have a JavaScript function (let's call the function "displayDiv") that ends up writing a <div> to the page. If "displayDiv" is called within a table cell, the <div> will be added and displayed in that table cell. Now, what I'm trying to accomplish is replicating this behaviour with an AJAX function (let's call the function "callAJAX") that returns HTML containing "displayDiv" and adding the code to a specific location in the page. I have tried this, problem is that the JavaScript returned from "callAJAX" was not executed.
I then did some research and tried a few things: 1. I tried parsing out the JavaScript (displayDiv) from the returned HTML (callAJAX) and adding it to the <head> tag, which in theory, should be executed. This approach did not work for me because "displayDiv" writes a <div> to the page and from the <head> it would not know where to write the <div>. 2. I have tried parsing out the JavaScript (displayDiv) from the returned HTML (callAJAX) and executing it with EVAL() but this would not work because the AJAX function would not know where to write the <div> created within the "displayDiv" function. I guess what I'm hoping for is some magical piece of code that would tell the browser to parse the page again and execute the JavaScript that was added to the page by the AJAX function. ============================ I am posting this on behalf of a friend who is to busy today :) If anyone can tell me if this is even possible, and if so, where to go next, that would be most excellent! Many thanks, - Jonny
