Hi,

I am using simple page.replace\_html method to replace a piece of code  
after update. It works fine and new info gets displayed at place of new  
but it totally disappears in IE. Any idea why?

It’s IE6.

Thanks.

Hi

Usually in IE only we could know javascript errors. If there is error it  
will be show an indication bottom left portion. However that will work  
fine in firefox.
