Q609 How can I use entities with Microsoft Internet Explorer?

In Netscape Navigator you can use JavaScript Entities as follows:

<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
var len = 200;
//--></script>
</head>

<body>
<hr width="&{len};">
</body>

</html>

Microsoft Internet Explorer does not support JavaScript Entities, but you could try:

<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
var len = 200;
//--></script>
</head>

<body>

<script language="JavaScript"><!--
document.write('<hr width="' + len + '">);
//--></script>

</body>

</html>
