hey, guys.i guess there's a bug in IE8 that does not allow proper use of the innerHTML prop. in javascript. is there a workaround?
i am trying to dynamically create a table with contents from an XML file.
and how do you load a xml file(javascript) in google chrome??(like this for ie -new ActiveXObject("MSXML.DOMDocument"))
any help would be great!!
