Correct.

From your post I assumed you already knew about the "File System Object", 
and that the "fso" variable is just that, a variable - and thus can be named 
anything you want.

In my case I am a bit of an old git in this regard, prefixing the variable 
name with what its intended use : "o" for object, and the "FS" from the the 
capitals of the "File System" name.

:-)   Thats mostly the problem when searching for something new, not knowing 
what the keywords are.

Yep. That is nowerdays a feature of setting innerHTML to something, 
auto-parsing its new contents.

If-and-when you do find out how to do that than please post it.  I could 
also use it.

You do not actually need to put it in a page to be able to parse it. 
instead of  document.getElementsByClassName(....) you can just use 
MyElement.getElementsByClassName(....).  Even when MyElement has not (yet) 
been placed on the page.

(in case you are wondering: I've got FF with GreaseMonkey installed, and do 
write some scrubber code).
