Why does not <DIV>'s and <STYLE> attributes work in NS4.72 when using dynapi.js?

From the DynAPI FAQ : 

   The DynAPI is being created to be cross-browser compliant. Although
the       
   W3C is setting standards (DOM1, DOM2), the browsers that comply to
these   
   standards might not always work correctly. The problem lies in a few 
   factors. The main factor being Javascript, Javascript standards are not  
   part of the W3C's DOM, although there is a Javascript standard, this is  
   something not (yet) supported by all browsers. This is also the main 
   problem we have when trying to make DynAPI work crossbrowser. Another 
   problem is that there are no real DOM compliant browsers yet. There are  
   of course a few browsers that are being developed to be DOM compliant,
   but at this time these browsers seem to contain small bugs that can
   screw up the DynAPI code.

In short, who knows, there is always going to be compliance issues until
there is an agreed standard for Javascript, the DOM and probably lots of
other things we will hear about in the near future.
