    document.getElementById("balanceText").innerText = "111";
    and
    document.getElementById("balanceText").value = "111";

    Both Work grand in IE,

    But will not work in Chrome, FF, Opera or Safari.

    Google is being a bitch and not helping me much.. GAH !

    AFAIR the correct accessor is 
    document.getElementById("balanceText").innerHTML = "111";

    Although it appears that it turned out not to be a cross browser issue, you should consider a library such a jquery when working in JavaScript.

    you can then write statements such as $('#MY_ELEM_ID').html('MY_NEW_HTML');

    and not have to worry abouyt x browser compatibility as much.

    There are also many other benefits of such a library.
