Browser-dependent JavaScript problem

Show all headers | View raw

I have not been able to access this newsgroup for a while.


The following code was written in Firefox, and works there; it is called in a script element which immediately follows <BODY>.
it puts something like
          × FREDERIC.HTM - saved @ LCT 2021-05-22 Sat ×
in the bottom right-hand corner of the window.

But it does not work in Chrome, Vivaldi, Opera, AVG Secure Browser, or Edge. 
 In IE11, the style setting has no effect, and the unadorned string appears top right.  OS is Windows 10.

The style line will probably be wrapped in transmission.
For test purposes, replace YMDDstr with toString or remove .YMDDstr() !
NPR means NON-PRINT - 


function Show_Age() { // Needs INC-DATE.JS or do not use YMDDstr
  var ND = new Date(), LM = new Date(document.lastModified)
  if ((ND-LM) > 1500 && +LM > 1e12) {
    var El = document.createElement("div")
    El.style = "bottom: 0px; right: 0px; position: fixed; background: silver; width: auto; text-align: center; border-radius: 1ex; padding: 0.3ex 1.2ex; font-family: sans-serif;"
    El.className = "NPR"		// assumes styles-a.css
    El.appendChild(document.createTextNode("\xD7 " + 
    location.pathname.replace(/.*\//, "").toUpperCase() + 
      " - saved @ LCT " + LM.YMDDstr() + " \xD7"))
    El.onclick = function() { this.style.display = "none" }
    }
  document.body.appendChild(El) }

Any suggestions?
