How to empty the content of a div

Question

Does someone know how to empty the content of a div (without destroying it) in JavaScript?

Thanks,

Answer 1

If your div looks like this:

<div id="MyDiv">content in here</div>

Then this Javascript:

document.getElementById("MyDiv").innerHTML = "";

will make it look like this:

<div id="MyDiv"></div>

Answer 2

If you're using jQuery ...

$('div').html(''); 

or

$('div').empty();
