Hello, why my "myns:button" don't become red in IE 6 / 7 / 8 unlike in Firefox / Opera / Safari / Chrome ?
<html>
    <head>
        <script type="text/javascript">
            window.onload = function() {
                var tmp = document.getElementsByTagName('myns:button');
                for (i = 0; i < tmp.length; i++) {
                    tmp[i].style.color = '#FF0000';
                }
            };
        </script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <myns:button>My NS Button</myns:button>
    </body>
</html>
I already tried to prepend the following to my js :
document.createElement('myns:button');
But that doesn't work in IE, why ? Thanks.
