JavaScript innerHTML is not working for IE?

The innerHTML property has some problems in IE when trying to add or update form elements, the workaround is to create a div and set the innerHtml property on that before appending to the DOM:

var newdiv = document.createElement("div");
newdiv.innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;
var container = document.getElementById(id);
container.appendChild(newdiv);
