This usually means you're doing something non-standard which due to the 
quirks of some browsers, is having the desired effect anyway.

Note in this case that a name attribute is not an id attribute, and the 
fact that explorer may (a) assign name as id to named fields without an 
id attribute or (b) find a field matching the name if there's no field 
matching the id on a getElementById() call might be such a quirk.

In the html element's attributes, add 'id="id_goes_here"'
