no progress bar when using IE7 and innerHTML

["dsdsdsdsd" <webforumsuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

hello;

 when I use javascript to:
 [code]
 document.getElementById( "my_shockwave_container_div").innerHTML = 
my_object_embed_string 
 [/code]
 the progress bar does not work but instead just sits there on the screen 
blank, even though the .dcr does load and does begin playing when downloaded;

 if I simply place the object and embed tags into the HTML as a simple html 
document would normally be, the progress bar works;

 furthermore, the progress bar works on Mozilla and IE6 regardless of the 
method I use;

 any thoughts??

 thanks
