It's not really a question of IE6 liking that code or not. It's invalid HTML, so all bets are off. The real thing to mark for future reference should be: http://validator.w3.org/ When things are acting strange, run your code through the validator. Valid HTML will help you get more consistent

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
