    really? in FF3.06 just now:
    <a href="#" id="foo">my link</a>

<script language="JavaScript">
var foo = document.getElementById("foo");

alert(foo.getAttribute("rel")); // alerts null
foo.setAttribute("rel", "nofollow");
alert(foo.getAttribute("rel")); // alerts 'nofollow'
</script>

    According to the mozilla DOM reference ( https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/element.setAttribute )

    so you should better change your code to
    <script type="text/javascript">
function regel()
{
	var z=document.getElementById("t1");
	var s=z.value;

	document.getElementById("t2").value=s;
	z.value="";
}

function megel()
{
	var z=document.getElementById("t2");
	var s=z.value;

	document.getElementById("t1").value=s;
	z.value="";
}
</script>
    HTML:
    hope this helps..

    interesting, gnp... thanks for that clarification, rep inbound :)
    once again -- sorry for misleading here - this is due to my excessive use of methods and frameworks - in mootools, all i'd do here is element.set("value", "blah"); and forget about it. :(
