I'm quite green when it comes to coding in HTML and JavaScript, so pardon any mistakes that may appear in my code. I was wondering if it was possible to iterate thru a SharePoint Announcement list, and insert the title of the announcement into a set of 3 different DIVs on my News Rotator that I have on my companies intranet home page. Eventually, I'd like to roll up announcements from several subsites into the home page. I have found some code snippets online that allow me to get the list data, and output them to an alert, but I just can't seem to wrap my head around how I'd accomplish the task described above. See blow for the HTML and JavaScript. Any and all assistance would be appreciated, and many thanks in advance

You can use a span like:

<span id="myspan"></span>    

Then you can set it with:

$('#myspan').text(listItemInfo);
