'No element found' error

[C.Joseph Drayton]

Hi All,

I am not sure if this is a JavaScript or PHP error. Basically what
is happening, is that I have an HTML page with the following
JavaScript. As you can see makeRequest() calls a PHP script which is
included below.

When the code is executed, I get the following error in FireFox's
JavaScript console;

Hi All,

If the JS console is showing an error, then it is a JS error, but that
error may be caused by PHP generated code. Go figure.

Start adding alerts to your function to see when it errors out.
