how to remove a div element completely

how do I remove a <div> element completely?

foo.removeChild(div);

ok, thanks

montanarry, div.parentNode.removeChild(div); might easier to use

I tried "ddocument.removeChild(document.getElementById('notice'));" but that didn't work =/ -d in the beginning.

montanarry, var div = document.getElementById('notice'); div.parentNode.removeChild(div);
