document.getElementById().innerHTML problem
Hi All,

I have been searching high and low for a solution, or at least a reason, for a problem that I am having with document.getElementById().innerHTML.

I am creating a "mini" calendar to use on my web page. What i am trying to do is make it so that when a user clicks the next month button, all of the DIVs that store the days of the month have the innerHTML cleard and then replaced with the days. And this works, but IE gives an error message and FireBug informs me that document.getElementById("d0") is null.

The error is from this function:
Code:
function displayMini(dateX){
	var x = new Date(dateX.getFullYear(),dateX.getMonth(),1);
	var i = 0;
	var d = 'd';
	var ctr = 1;
	for (i = 0; i < 42; i++){
		div = d+i;
		document.getElementById(d+i).innerHTML="";
 		document.getElementById(d+i).style.cursor="default";
	}
    for (i = x.getDay(); i < (daysPerMonth(dateX.getMonth())+x.getDay()); i++){
        document.getElementById(d+i).innerHTML=ctr;
		document.getElementById(d+i).style.cursor="pointer";
        ctr++;
    }
    document.getElementById('Month').innerHTML=(months[dateX.getMonth()] + " " + dateX.getFullYear());
}

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Here is the rest of the code:

Code:
<?php
function getURLDate(){
	if (isset($_REQUEST['yyyy'], $_REQUEST['mm'], $_REQUEST['dd'])){
		$yyyy = $_REQUEST['yyyy'];
		$mm = $_REQUEST['mm'];
		$dd = $_REQUEST['dd'];
		echo'
		date = new Date('.$yyyy.','.$mm.','.$dd.');  
		displayMini(date);
		';
		
	}else{
		echo'
		date = new Date();
		displayMini(date);
		';
	}
}
?>

I figured out the problem. The function displayMini(dateX) was called twice when it only needed to be called once. I'm not sure why that wouldn't work and I don't really care as i did not mean to call it twice.

I simply removed the call to the function in the PHP section of the code and now it works like a charm.
