I tried to load some scripts into a page using innerHTML on a <div>. It appears that the script loads into the DOM, but it is never executed (at least in Firefox and Chrome). Is there a way to have scripts execute when inserting them with innerHTML?
Sample code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body onload="document.getElementById('loader').innerHTML = '<script>alert(\'hi\')<\/script>'">
Shouldn't an alert saying 'hi' appear?
<div id="loader"></div>
</body>
</html>
