Transfer javascript code from iFrame to a DIV

Hi,

I have HTML form whose target is an invisible IFrame. After the IFrame
is loaded completely,
following code transfers contents of IFrame to DIV

document.getElementById("mainDiv").innerHTML =
test_iframe.document.body.innerHTML;

but this does not seem to carry over the Javascript code from IFrame to
DIV.
Can anyone comment if this is the correct behavior or a bug?
(The requirement is to submit a form and update only portion of screen,
without using
AJAX. A DIV cannot be target of the FORM, hence the IFrame->DIV route)

Thanks,
Sameer
