appendChild在IE中不起作用

Question

以下代码片段为javascript html添加到页面。它适用于Chrome和Firefox，但不适用于IE。

xmlHttp.onload = function() {
     if (xmlHttp.status === 200) {
        var okToComeBack = true;
        var responseJson = JSON.parse(xmlHttp.responseText);
        var environmentDiv = document.createElement('div');
        environmentDiv.setAttribute('class', 'container-environmentmarker');
        environmentDiv.innerHTML = '<div class="container-environment"><div class="environment-marker"></div></div>';
        document.body.appendChild(environmentDiv);        
        document.getElementsByClassName(that._config.environmentClass)[0].innerHTML = responseJson.nameOfEnvironment;
        document.getElementsByClassName(that._config.environmentMarkerClass)[0].setAttribute('class', that._config.environmentMarkerClass + ' ' + that._config.environmentMarkerClassPrefix + responseJson.colourOfMarker);

        if (responseJson.nameOfSite !== undefined) {
            document.getElementsByClassName(that._config.siteNameClass)[0].innerHTML = responseJson.nameOfSite;
        }
    }
};

你知道为什么吗？
