Answer 1

First, don't use document.all -- it's non-standard and deprecated. Use document.getElementsByTagName to get the DIV elements in your case.

Second, don't extend DOM objects such as NodeList -- built-in objects are a very strange breed and are not required to behave like any other objects that you generally work with. See this article for an in-depth explanation of this: What's wrong with extending the DOM.
