How can I remove a child node in HTML using JavaScript?

Question

Is there a function like document.getElementById(\"FirstDiv\").clear()?

Answer 1

Use the following code:

//for Internet Explorer
document.getElementById("FirstDiv").removeNode(true);

//for other browsers
var fDiv = document.getElementById("FirstDiv");
fDiv.removeChild(fDiv.childNodes[0]); //first check on which node your required node exists, if it is on [0] use this, otherwise use where it exists.
