Hi,
My script, using autocompleter seems to work perfectly using Google
Chrome, but when I test in IE7 i get an error as i begin to input data
into one of the fields associated with it:
Line: 2272
Char: 5
Error: 'style' is null or not an object
Code: 0
URL: ...
I'm not entirely sure where line 2272 is as many of my pages are
included, etc etc...
Can anyone help?
Code is as follows:
<html>
<head><script src="jscript/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></
script>
<script src="jscript/scriptaculous.js" type="text/javascript"></
script>
<title>Team Editing</title>

I've tracked this one down before.
IE hates it if you try and access the style of an element before it's
been inserted into the DOM.
So, somewhere ( on line 2272 ....), an element has been created in
JavaScript and the style is being altered before it as been inserted
into the DOM.
Hope that helps
Cheers!
