Destroy div object

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Apr 12.2006

I have script use to embed Flash object into HTML page (Flash Media Server).
I created div tags to contain them with seperate id for each.
When I destroy one div tag. (Call javascript function from Flash to destroy). It destroys all div objects in page (Firefox). this is wrong. Although it’s right in IE.
I don’t know why. Anyone knows it?

</i>DIVtoRemove = document.getElementById("removeMe");
document.body.removeChild(DIVtoRemove);

Try that.

I did like that, if you call this function from your page, it's ok (firefox + ie), but when you call function from Flash Media, it's error.

I can't understand.

So which is different between call javascript function from Flash and site?

It makes me very confused

@KorApr 12.2006 — When removing a childNode you must remove it from its direct parent, or body might not be the direct parent of that div. Try this

var DIVtoRemove = document.getElementById("removeMe");

DIVtoRemove.[B]parentNode[/B].removeChild(DIVtoRemove);

Success!
