document.getElementById('keylink').innerHTML = '<a ></a>'; not working in ie

Question

As you can see from the title that code not working in IE but working in other browsers also if I use like that

document.getElementById('keylink').innerHTML = '<p>hi</p>'; 

It's working so there is problem in <a> and innerHTML please give me some solution on that

Answer 1

IE won't identify blank anchors.. try something like this:

document.getElementById('keylink').innerHTML = '<a href="#" onclick="return false;">hi</a>'; 

To create "dummy" link that doesn't do anything when clicked but still looks like a link.
