createElement, appendChild and so on, but still doesnt work.

I heard IE need tbody and tr must be in that tbody element, but still after creating that still dont work.

ECHO (toXml($myCart));

function toXml($aCart)
{ 
	$doc = new DomDocument('1.0');
	$cart = $doc->createElement('cart');
	$cart = $doc->appendChild($cart);
	
	foreach ($aCart as $Item => $ItemName)
	{ 
		$book = $doc->createElement('book');
		$book = $cart->appendChild($book);
		$title = $doc->createElement('title');
		$title = $book->appendChild($title);
		$value = $doc->createTextNode($Item);
		$value = $title->appendChild($value);
		$quantity = $doc->createElement('quantity');
		$quantity = $book->appendChild($quantity);
		$value2 = $doc->createTextNode($ItemName);
		$value2 = $quantity->appendChild($value2);
	}
$strXml = $doc->saveXML(); // this serializes the XML as a string
return $strXml;
}

function toHTML($aModel,$aMaker,$aPrice,$aQty)
{ 
	$tableString="<tr>
						<th>Manufacturer</th>
						<th>Model</th>
						<th>Price</th>
						<th>Qty</th>
						<th>Total Price</th>
					</tr>";
	foreach ($aModel as $item)
	{
		$tableString .="<tr id='".$aModel[$item]."'>
							<td>".$aMaker[$item]."</td>
							<td>".$aModel[$item]."</td>
							<td>".$aPrice[$item]."</td>
							<td>".$aQty[$item]."</td>
							<td>".$aPrice[$item]*$aQty[$item]."</td>
							<td><a href='#' onclick='RemoveItem(\"Remove\",\"".$aModel[$item]."\")';>Remove Item</a></td>
						</tr>";
	}

return $tableString;
}

What concern me this will also return string or xml format? to xhr.responseText, in the end I have to display this using innerHTML to tag id I have in my html page. Will that still work in IE?

AFAIK, you have never been able to set the innerHTML of a TABLE element in IE.

<table border=1><tr><td id = "td1"></td></tr></table>

javascript:void(document.getElementById('td1').innerHTML='Test2')
