How about (untested):

var oldList = document.getElementById( "listid" );
var newList = oldList.cloneNode( true );

for ( newItemText in textArray ) {
   newLi = document.createNode("li");
   newLiText = docuemnt.createTextNode( newItemText );
   newLi.appendChild( newLiText );
   newList.appendChild( newLi );
}

oldList.parentNode.replaceChild( oldList, newList );

Would this only re-render once when the list was replaced?
