Is it? I'm using AHAH (H = HTML, as opposed to XML) to dynamically retrieve some content and innerHTML seems infinitely more sensible: the content being pulled in has an indeterminate number of paragraphs, so short of parsing the incoming document for paragraphs, recreating elements, and setting the text nodes to the contents of the paragraph elements in the first place, using DOM JavaScript seems... not particularly sensible, from a client-side performance perspective (nor from a JS code complexity perspective).
innerHTML doesn't work with XHTML, etc,. I know... and it's not a DOM method... but do people consider it okay to use when it seems otherwise impractical to use "standard" methods?
