Hi,

It works perfectly to display text but I have tried several approaches to insert an image instead via the CreateObjectNode, and honestly can;t figure it out to work.

This is for a customer that has a map inside of an iframe, could you please point me out what I am missing to insert a gif image saying loading?

Thank you and kind regards,

JP

JP, to create an image is pretty easy, basically you replace:

newElement.appendChild(document.createTextNode('Loading ...'));

with an image instead:

var imgElement = new Image();

imgElement.src = 'http://www.google.com/images/logo_sm.gif';

newElement.appendChild(imgElement);

That will show an image node instead of a text node (Loading).
