I am doing a simple client-side example using DOM in JScript. When the
user enter info and click on the submit button, it will then print the
value at the bottom of the page. However, I don't know what's wrong
that the entered values are not printed out. Can anyone please help
me??? Any reply is appreciated. My code is as follow, you can copy and
run it yourself.

Browsers render HTML as a stream, rather than as a parse tree. Try to
put your script at the beginning of the document, rather than at the end.
