First, add an ID for the div element. Then:

document.getElementById("id").firstChild.data = "Changed Text"

document.all.pens.innerHTML = words;

vs

foo.appendChild(newtext);

I'm no expert, that's just a way that I found when I was looking to do the
same thing... it seems simpler, but is there anything technically better for
doing it either way?

innerHTML is not part of the standard
(and IME badly supported on IE - sepecially for table elements)

ApopendChild(etc) is part of the standard, and so should work on all
ECMAscript capable browsers.
