I made a script (using mootools library) that is supposed to overlay an image with a table grid and when each grid cell is clicked/dragged over its background color changes ‘highlighting’ the cell.
Current code creates a table and positions it over the element (el, image in this case). Table was used since I am planning to add rectangle select tool later on, and it seemed easiest way to do it.

There are two problems: while it works just fine in FF, IE and Chrome do not create the table if the page is refreshed. If you go back to directory root and click on the link to the file the grid table is displayed, if you hit ‘refresh’ button — the script runs but the table is not injected.
Secondly, although the table HTML is injected in IE, it does not display it. I tried adding nbsp’s to make sure its not ignored — to no avail.
Any suggestions on improving code or help with the issues is appreciated.
Thanks!
Try adding a docType dec at the top of the page IE:
