Content not showing until resized in nested panel

[JNason]

We are trying to put content into a nested layout panel (based on the nested layout example) using the following code:

function doIT(productID){
       var time1 =new Date().getTime();
        var el = Ext.get("inner1");
        var mgr = el.getUpdateManager();
        mgr.update("http://admin.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.com/webapp/Admin", "productID=" + productID + "&temporaryID="+ tempID +"&time=" +time1 + "&co=1");

    }

The content does not show up until we resize the panel. Then it shows up just fine. This only happens in IE6 & IE7 not in Firefox. We thought that collapsing and reopening the panel automatically might work to fix this but are not sure how to do it.

try calling layout() on the borderlayout to force an update. If that does not work and the borderlayout is not set to the document.body, try explicitly setting a width and height for the div container for you borderlayout.

That worked. Thank you
