He's not setting it--tobyink was simply showing you how to get the desired element that has the setData method. Frequently, when answering questions, we show you how to get past the stumbling point, we figure you can take it from there. ;^)

By the way, if you would, please edit your first post in this thread and remove the blank from the closing </Code> tag.change the code tags from <Code> to <code>, so the code displays correctly. (Don't forget to change the closing tag, too!)

Update: ambrus pointed out that the problem in the original post was that the problem wasn't the case, but that there was an extra blank in the closing tag.
