Question

I am trying to add an inline element to my page. It should behave exactly like span i.e. not introduce any default styling of it’s own..I want to just be able to refer this element in my JS (using id).
Please help me suggest some style(less) elements like span.

Answer 1

Use createElement() in JavaScript

<script>
    var newElement = document.createElement('newElement');
    newElement.setAttribute('id', 'newElementId');
    var oldElement = document.getElementById('element');
    oldElement.appendChild(newElement);
</script>

<div id="element"></div>

That should add a new element type, “newElement”
