[pavan gali]

Hi,I have an issue with Table display. Table should show the users list who are
accessing the page. This works good in Firefox,but the same code is not displaying table in IE..code goes like this, please help me out

Error display: runtime error at line 459

function setDiv( fieldId, value )
{
    //alert( "setDiv(" + fieldId + ", value=" + value + ")" );
     var elem = document.getElementById(fieldId);
        //this is the element in the HTML page
    if (elem != null)
    {
   if ("outerHTML" in elem)
    {
    if (elem.parentNode.tagName == "PRE")
    {
    elem.outerHTML = ((value == null) ? "" : "<pre>"+value + "<pre>");
    }
    else
   {
      
    elem["outerHTML"] = ((value == null) ? "" : value);
    // elem.outerHTML ="";
        }
    }
    else if (elem.innerHTML != null)
{
// the below line is shown having the error
       elem.innerHTML = ((value == null) ? "" : value);
       
        //elem.innerHTML = value;
     }
}
}
 

HTML file uses the above function at line setdiv .
code as in HTML file...

function dataCallback( xmlDoc )
            {
                 var users = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("user");
                 if( users == null )
                 {
                     alert("No users found.");
                     return;
                 }
                 var buff = "";
                 //
                 for( var i=0 ; i<users.length ; ++i )
                 {             
                     buff +=  "<tr>";
                     var user = users[i];
                     buff = formatUserEntry( buff, user );
                     buff +=  "<tr>";
                 }
                 //
                 setDiv( "userList", buff );
                 showContentPanel();
                }
