Re: accessing dynamic generated dom element with javascript in IE

A lot's been written on this list on this issue. The summary is that 
your form elements don't entirely exist - IE can't properly create form 
elements on the fly. Search this Group list for "IE dynamic form 
elements" - you'll find a lot of good info on this problem. A lot more 
than my repeating it here could get you!
