am implementing a quick getElementsById function

I assume you mean getElementById (singular, not plural)

In IE i am
using document.all (i presume this is the only efficient
alternative for IE, am i correct?)..

getElementById works in IE just fine. Have you tried it?

Nope i did mean getElementsById, getElementById only returns one
object irrespective of how many objects with the same ID exist. In
this case i may have the same market data appear in different DIV
elements and this just want to return an array of all Divs with that
ID; something getElementById will not do. cheers.

Say what? There ain't no "getElementsById", bro. Some say there _is_ a
"getElementsByName", but I've never used it so I can't elucidate
eclectically.

Well, you may be correct, but "implementing" can have various nuances and a
quick reading of the original post shows no complete function termed
getElementsById(). Furthermore, I _still_ don't really understand the
question because only 1 instance of a particular id is valid in a document.

Um, he just explained he's writing his own function to get multiple
elements.

Maybe you mean getElementsByTagName, which does work beautifully.

Actually, I saw in some Google reference a statement that
"getElementsByName" exists. Not saying the author's right, though, and
yes, I was really thinking of "getElementsByTagName".
