Rails - May 2006 - Very simple RJS not working in IE

My HTML:

<div id="search_div" style="display: none;">
<table>
<tbody id=''search_results''>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>

My RJS:

page.insert_html :bottom, ''search_results'',
"<tr><td>Test</td></tr>"
page.show "search_div"

Now, everytime this gets called, it adds a "Test" row. However, I  
want it to replace the current rows, not add one.

So I tried adding this line to my RJS before the other 2 lines:

page.replace_html ''search_results'', ''''

This clears out the TBODY perfectly fine in both Firefox and Safari,  
but it stops the RJS from processing in IE.

I know IE has an issue with RJS and updating tables, which is why I  
am trying to update the TBODY tag instead. Any ideas why this isn''t  
working?

Well I installed the "taconite_for_prototype.js" and everything works
great now. I guess IE just has issues directly accessing the TABLE  
and TBODY elements.
