[Javascript] How do I retrieve values from custom attributes on a DIV?

[javascript@xxxxxxxxxx (TomMallard)]

I'd never tried item() before...anyway, your hang up is NS4, have you tried
this idea?

document.style.idName.property

I don't have a DOM chart for netscape here, have you checked their website?

Thanks for the reply...

But document.all does not work in IE, also, "areaTwo" is not a form object,
it is a DIV, therefore it does not have a "value".

My question concerns retrieving the value of a custom attribute from a DIV
within NN 4.

Thanks

Walter
