I am receiving the following error message in Firefox Error Console:

Error: myChar.attributes.getNamedItem("line") has no properties
Source File: http://www.iridiusprime.com/a7.html
Line: 16
The page is located here:

The JavaScript:

Code:

function hiLite(myActor)
{
	var myDiv = document.getElementsByTagName("div");
	for(var x=0; x<myDiv.length; x++)
	{
		var myChar = myDiv[x]
		var currentActor = myChar.attributes.getNamedItem("line").nodeValue
		if (currentActor == "action")
			continue;
		var myNewColor = myChar.getElementsByTagName("font");
		
		for(var y=0; y<myNewColor.length; y++)
		{
			var myLines = myNewColor[y]
			if(myActor == currentActor)			
			{
				myLines.setAttribute("color","#CC0000");
			}else{
				myLines.setAttribute("color","#cccccc");
			}		
		}
	}
}

Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Try

Code:

var currentActor = myChar.getAttribute("line");
