I use
mycurrent_cell. setAttribute("s tyle", "background-color:green");
and
mycurrent_cell. setAttribute("c olspan", "3");
to set some attributes of a table. The code works perfect in FireFox and
Opera, but in IE the table looks like those properties haven't been set.
When I use the 'view generated source' (from webdevelopers toolbar in FF)
and I use that to create a static html-page, it looks OK in IE. I've checked
but the setAttribute is recognized by IE, but maybe there is a problem with
the setAttribute when used for a <td> or <th> ?
If necessary I can post complete code.

IE has quite a lot of bugs, I didn't tested these two lines above and I
won't do it now hehe. Anyway, in my opinion it should work, try to set
through JavaScript to see if it works ;)
cell.style.back groundColor = "green";
cell.colSpan = 3;
But maybe you're right, since there's a problem with the class property,
when you set through setAttribute on IE it doesn't reflect your changes,
it does only if you set using "object.classNa me = 'lala'";
If necessary I can post complete code.
Post an URL, with the minimun code to generate the problem. If you post
a big code here, nobody will read :)

Thanks,
The cell.style.back groundColor ... and cell.colSpan work great. I wonder is
there a way to test/detect that a browser doesn't support the setAttribute
method ? I am learning DOM & Javascript and it is thaught it is not done to
test for a browser but to test if a property, method, object , ... is valid
(if (window.ActiveX Object) {...}).

IE supports the setAttribute for a table, but not for a cell (td or th).
So I guess I will have to work with cell.style.back groundColor, ... to set
properties for a <td> or <th>-tag.

One has to pass 'className' to the setAttribute method for IE to
recognise it. Yes, I know: stupid.

the setAttribute method ?
Just avoid it. As far as I know, all HTML attributes and CSS properties
can be accessed using the shortcut properties.
If a document is served as XHTML (that is, with an application/xhtml+xml
MIME type) the situation is different, but then IE doesn't support
XHTML, anyway.

Yes, but as IE does implement the *Attribute methods, a test would need
to be more complicated than that. Besides, what would you do if the test
failed? Use the shortcut properties, no doubt, so you might as well do
that from the outset.
(if (window.ActiveX Object) {...}).
A rather random example. It certain has no relevance here.

I don't know about you, but I always preffer to use the built-in
JavaScript stuffs.
Instead of:
select.appendCh ild(document.cr eateElement("op tion")).text = "Jonas";
I preffer:
select.options. add(new Option("Jonas", ""));

"So I guess I will have to work with cell.style.back groundColor"
well... whats wrong with that? its easier to use, faster and less
complicated, so rather than "having to" you "are luckily allowed to"

I am curious if there is a benefit to set attributes directly, in my
javascript, or to use setAttribute.
For example, I have this:
var input = document.createElementNS(xhtmlNS, 'input');
input.setAttribute('width', '20em');
I could have just called input.width='20em'
When is each better to use, or is there no difference between them?
