Unknown runtime error in Ajax

Unknown runtime error in Ajax

This error messages can come when you use browser(IE).

This error occurs when you are manipulating the html of a div with javascript using the innerHTML method.

The workaround for this error is
1) create another div,
2) put the html inside it and
3) Append it to the original div.

Here is sample code:

var originalDiv= document.getElementById('myDiv');

var tempDiv = document.createElement('tempDiv');
tempDiv .innerHTML =html;

originalDiv.appendChild(tempDiv);
