Set Text of Layer Question

Question

A Very Easy Question.
I attempt to "set text of layer." I click on the plus sign on
the behaviors window, and set text to layer. A cute little box pops
up. In the Layer drop down box is a host of "unnamed
<span>"s. None of my divs are listed. In the body of this
page are Plenty of ID'd divs. I have named layers out the wazoo.
Why Are My Named Layers Not Listed In the Layer Drop Down
Box?

It would depend entirely on your level of HTML expertise.
One way to solve the problem would be to use an IFrame to
contain the
external content on the page, but a frame is a frame is a
frame. By that I
mean that IFrames usually provide all the user problems that
frames do.

Linking from one page to another is how static HTML pages
work. Having a
single page to display multiple content elements as loaded
from a database
requires that the page return to the server to fetch new
content from the
database on each click. Either method requires a page
refresh.
Linking to content that is placed within an IFrame doesn't
require this page
refresh, but carries other disadvantages as mentioned above.
Does that help at all?
