createElement with predefined CSS in IE6 & IE7

[PhoenixD]

I am creating balloons (or tooltips), but calling them bubbles.

It works perfectly in Firefox, and I have it almost working in IE7, but IE6 is just plain not showing anything.

I am creating a div and all of its content (by creating a div and then assigning it innerHTML)

The div I assign a class, which is defined in a stylesheet that's getting included on the page. I know this is where IE7 err's because if I use javascript to set all the properties of the div manually, IE7 gets much closer to working and with more fiddling I could fix it.

IE6, however, is still blank and I'm quite clueless.

You can see my test page at

I'm not including any code as I'm not getting any errors... and I feel no need to bombard you with all the javascript, css and source of the page.

Thanks!

Look again.

[tt]Microsoft JScript runtime error: '1' is null or not an object[/tt]

var href = /#[^?]+\?(.+)/.exec(anchors[i].hash);
[COLOR=red]var arVariables = href[1].split("&");[/color]

You aren't bothering to check if [tt]href[/tt] actually has a 1st value before attempting to do things to it.

Thanks - I guess I have a quarky version of IE - doesn't show that error

So the difference was the "hash" in IE 6 doesn't include the query string after, as it does in IE7 and FF.

Thanks!
