Is it possible that when you delete the immediate children, their
descendants are still present?
Your div is the root of a tree. What you need to do is trim the tree back
to the root starting at the most distant branch.
Possibly something like this:
function remove_children_and_node( node ) {
while ( node.hasChildNodes() )
remove_children_and_node( node.firstChild );
node.parentNode.removeChild( node );
}
x = document.getElementById("myDiv");
while ( x.hasChildNodes() )
remove_children_and_node( x.firstChild );
Not tested, obviously.
