I have code that works when I use Internet Explorer, but does not work
when I use Mozilla Firefox.

The code is

	var textpassed = document.getElementById(fieldname).value;

where fieldname is the name of the field as defined in the document.

Any other operations using similar code, such as

	alert ("In field " + document.getElementById(fieldname).name);

returns valid results in Internet Explorer but not in Mozilla Firefox.

Would anyone know the reasons for this, and is this possible to get
around?
