ajax question?

If we have a div tag called "content" as ID and an ajax link within this div tag clicking on which will update itself. On some browsers, clicking on this link doesn't do anything at all, specially with Internet Explorer. It is a browser problem or is it something I can do in the code to fix it?

Thankyou.

Update:

In firefox it works, and in IE doesn't. I have also noticed that, on two different computers, both having exactly same IE version (e.g., 0.0.0000.00 - all version digits exactly the same) but on one computer it works and on another it doesnt.

    Internet explorer does so many things wrong! I develop ajax... and find often code goes haywire on IE. I have heard there is in add-in to debug, similar to firebug for firefox.

    in which browsers does your page work? in which doesn't it?

    UPDATE:

    WOW! is javascript turned off on the evil computer?

    In IE, check the bottom right corner for JS errors. For Mozilla, open the Javascript Console (Mozilla is much better for this). It's probably an error because all browsers that support current JS should work properly with AJAX.
