location.hash not changing history in ie6

Hello,

I have a problem with IE and location.hash. If I change the hash, the history doesn't "update" and it only keeps one record of the URL. This whole website is AJAX-driven and I need the user to be able to use the forward and back buttons in the browser. Everything works fine and dandy, tested on all the major browsers on PC and Mac, except for IE (both 6 and 7).
Is there some way I can tell the browser to advance in the history?

Thanks,
Tom

I don't know if you're using a framework/library. If not, you could consider using ReallySimpleHistory (RSH) or this link may help.
