Setting a link URL for a div

[DB]

I'm just getting into DHTML, and there's one thing I'm getting stuck on
in my current project. I'm building a list of destinations to display in
a window. Each one is in its own separate div. But I can't seem to
figure out how to add a link to those div's on the fly in my script. Is
there a way to do that in JavaScript?

Yes. And how you would do it depends on the HTML you use. Why is each
link in it's own div though? That's overkill if all it is for is to hold
a link.

function addLink(divId,link) {
// search, get text inside the div of id div
var txt = document.getElementById(divId);
while(txt.nodeType != 3) txt = txt.firstChild;
// new link tag
var L = document.createElement('A');
// new link href
L.href = link;
// insertion text to new link (precedent text catched)
L.innerHTML = txt.nodeValue;
// place of new link in document body
var target = txt.parentNode;
// delete old text
target.innerHTML = ''
// insertion
target.appendChild(L);
}

</script>
<div id="e1"><p>essai 1</p></div>
<div id="e2"><p>essai 2</p></div>
<div id="e3"><p>essai 3</p></div>
<p><a href="#"
onclick="addLink('e2','page2.htm');return false;">
page 2</a></p>
