Hi,
i'm trying to create a watch method for HTML elements, using __define[GS]etter__
when a property is changed. It reacts just fine when i set the value, but if the property listened to, is innerHTML, it somehow fails to render the given string. So basically, when im adding something to innerHTML it doesn't show.
Im using the watch method described in this previous question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1269633/javascript-watch-for-object-properties-changes
I could of cause just not listen to innerHTML changes, but i'm also wondering if the __defineSetter__
somehow prevents original handling of setting the value.
Thanks!
