Trey Runcie

The HTML Builder is for creating markup structure with javascript in a concise nested structure. It uses the YUI Global Object and the YUI Dom object available from the Yahoo! User Interface Library.

There are four public functions.

1. contentTag: a function for creating html elements with child nodes.
2. tag: a function for creating self closing html elements like img, input or br.
3. write: a function for rendering the html elements to the DOM.
4. addEvent: a function that adds an event to an element and returns that element for rendering in the Dom.
