[ctlq]

I wrote the code below for clearing out a row in a table. The problem is this function is very sporadic on how it works and never does it quite right. Does anyone know a better way of doing this? I'm trying to avoid innerHTML since its not in the W3C DOM spec.

Code:
function clear(obj) {
    group = obj.childNodes;
    for (i = 0; i < group.length; i++) {
        obj.removeChild(group[i]);
    }
}

edit: One more thing, one of the cells holds another table inside it and that's where I seem to run into problems.

function annihilateChildren(obj) {
while(obj.firstChild) {
obj.removeChild(obj.firstChild);
}
}

I don't know if that's the best way to do it or not, but that's a bit of script I recently used in a widget so it works in Safari.
