tinyMce setcontent problem in IE

The problem is with TinyMce library on wordpress , when run with Internet Explorer( 7 or 8).

Here is the code I use

var txt = "<h1> hey </h1>";

var ed = tinyMCE.getInstanceById(domElementId); // domElementId is the div ID for the textarea where i am adding the content.
ed.selection.setContent(txt);

Can anyone suggest what could be the reason/fix ? Thanks.
