not sure what is causing the problem, but one alternative approach would be to use empty() and append()
$("#myDivId").empty(); $("#myDivId").append(val) maybe that will work better? --Karl _________________ Karl Swedberg www.englishrules.com www.learningjquery.com On Feb 11, 2008, at 7:54 PM, Slantedview wrote:
I have a Div tag whose contents I'm trying to wipe out and replace with stuff retrieved via an ajax call. Everything works fine, except in IE6, where when I try to wipe out the contents of my div tag, nothing happens: $("#myDivId").html(""); The .html(val) call works fine in IE for some pages, but not for others. I'm guessing it's more of a problem with IE6 than JQuery, but I was hoping someone else had come across this problem and could offer some tips? Thanks, jonathan
