all() function not working in Firefox

In IE below line is working . popup is a div element.

popup.all("submenu").innerHTML = "";

But in other browsers below error is coming

popup.all is not a function.

Is there any alternative for all function in other browsers.

Please suggest me. Thanks.

try this:

var popup=document.getElementById('popup');
for (i in popup.childNodes) {
   if (popup.childNodes[i].nodeType == 1) {
       popup.childNodes[i].innerHTML = '';
   }
}

Use document.getElementById(elementName).innerHTML = whatever; instead.

In all browsers (including Internet Explorer) you are expected to find items by their location in the DOM tree (I'm assuming it's a DOM node given the .innerHTML property). You can use, for instance, document.getElementById() and document.getElementsByTagName(). Of course, you can always store references to nodes in regular variables.

All method is not supported by most browsers. Except IE ofcourse. Test for document.getElementById if this is false then use the "all" method.
