I've gotten around IE's lack of innerHTML support in tables by creating
an entirely new table then ripping the row(s) out of it.
<table>
<tbody id="mainTbody">
<tr>...</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<script>
var rowHtml = '<tr><td>data</td></tr>';
var div = document.createElement('div');
div.innerHtml = '<table><tbody>' + rowHtml + '</tbody></table>';
var tbody = div.firstChild.firstChild;
var row = tbody.firstChild;
tbody.removeChild(row);
document.getElementById('mainTbody').appendChild(row);
</script>
Cheers,
Lance.

In IE you can only replace the inner content of td elements, anything
above that is off limits.
But......tables are still a perfectly acceptable way to lay content
out. I've played the floating div css whatever game and found it to
be more trouble than it's worth a lot (but not always) of the time.
Or I'm just lazy. :) (but even the "ajax kings" - ie gmail / others
use a lot of tables as well so it must be not as bad as people think)

For what I can remember table elements substitution (innerHTML ='...') have
problem under M$IE either if you threat 'em with dom.
The tbody element is needed tho handle all table 'real' content and to
separate that content from the header and footer that i threat for different
scopes.

that is true they do get tricky when it comes to vertical scaling, you
need
to use javascript to maintain that. however im still confused onto y you
are
using a tbody. i have no idea wether a tbody would have problems with
ajax.
I dont think it would.

Yes the use of div would be very nice, but as far as I know div elements
don't expand very well vertically, so building a table using div
elements
for cells and rows would be a little tricky. .... sigh!
ps.: I hate tables too

tbody is a soon to be deprecated html element. i would recommend
steering
away from tables and try to utilize div's and css as much as possible.
Especially if you wanna be using alot of AJAX.

Does anybody know if there are some problems in updating a tbody

when performing an ajax request?
