clear( ) — NN 2 IE 3 DOM n/a
Synopsis
Removes the current document from the window or frame, usually in
preparation to open a new stream for writing new content. The
document.write( )
and document.writeln( )
methods automatically invoke this method. Many bugs with
the document.clear( )
method plagued earlier
browser versions. Even today, it is best to let the document writing
methods handle the job for you.
Returned Value
None.
Parameters
None.
