I've been doing some website work recently and came across an annoyance while checking to see how the page was working in Internet Explorer. The problem showed up when I was trying to add a row of data to a table using the mochikit.DOM API. After doing some google searching I finally found the problem and it seems when adding a row you have to encapslate it in a tbody tag in order for IE to render it. I'm not exactly sure why this is but it's sloved the problem.

So instead of appending <tr><td>data<td><tr> to the table I append <tbody><tr><td>data</td></tr></tbody> and it now works in IE.
