    Re: Javascript Error???

    The if(document.getElementById) you have - what is that supposed to do??

    Are you trying to see if "boxdescription" exists as an element?

    If so you would want to do if(document.GetElementById("boxdescription")) instead.

    But regardless - that error is saying that .innerHTML is not an object on what is to the "left of it".

    I use FIREBUG to debug the JAVASCRIPT while running in the browser - so these types of issues are easy to see in the WATCH and CONSOLE windows...

    I removed the "value" and got the same error. No difference!

    How is boxdescription defined on your page?

    Is that IF statement helping you be cross-browser?

    Why not use jQuery for that - it's really helpful in that regard.
