Hi all,
I have a page with thumbnails. When the user clicks on a thumbnail a 
script does the following:
- creates a div
- populates the div with some buttons (next,previous, close, change 
resolution...)
-creates a image node, sets src to the big image the thumbnail 
correspond to, ad inserts it in the div
- finally appends the div to document.
So far, so good.
When the thumbnails points to a PDF, however, I have to change the div, 
particularly I:
-create a new embed node
-use replaceChild to switch the node image with the newly created node 
embed.
I could anyway go another route:
create the two nodes and simply give display:none to alternatively the 
image and the embed node, without the use of replaceChild.

Has someone an idea about cross-browsers issues with the first approach? 
It works with all the (main, modern) browsers on a pc. Android browser 
is OK too, but I'm unsure about iPads and iPhones (and I have no one to 
test with).
Thanks
Dan
