How to replace innerHTML of a div using jQuery?

Question

Hi,

How could I achieve the following using jQuery, i.e:

document.all.regTitle.innerHTML = 'Hello World';

where regTitle is my div id.

Thanks.

Answer 1

$("#regTitle").html("Hello World");

Answer 2

$('#regTitle').text('Hello world')

will set any text content, or, if you want to replace the entire HTML structure:

$('#regTitle').html('Hello World');

The html() function can take strings of HTML, and will effectively modify the .innerHTML property.
