What are the typical reasons Javascript developed on Firefox fails on IE? [closed]

Answer 1

I found an odd quirk just the other day with Internet Explorer. I was using YUI, and replacing the contents of a table body () by setting the innerHTML

Y.one('#elementId').set('innerHTML', 'Column 1');

This would work in all browsers EXCEPT IE. I finally discovered that you couldn't replace the innerHTML of a table in IE. I had to create a node using YUI and then append that node.

var myNode = Y.node.create('Column 1');
Y.one('#elementId').append(myNode);

That was a fun one to figure out!
