Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[kravvitz]

The example code is invalid. document.createTextNode() can not create element nodes.
I suggest this change:

    var frag = document.createDocumentFragment();
 
    frag.appendChild(    document.createTextNode('Some sample text') );

I will upgrade the whole page at the same time:
- HTML 4.01 strict conversion
- remove parameters section and create a description section
- etc.

The upgraded page's content will be transferred afterwards to
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/DOM:document.createDocumentFragment

CONFIRMING

Target: Before December 1st
