Javascript: Object doesn't support this property or method

Hi everybody,

Problem with dragging effect of resizing is working but having problem with setting a flag to determine if mouse button is click or not. Is there anyone knows how to fixed this? I used several ways to do this as shown below, all telling me the error below. I used IE 6 w/ SP1.
The error comes from onmousedown"mousedown()".

Error message:

Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support this property or method

Approaches made:

Code: ( text )

var mousedown = false;

inside mousedown,

Code: ( text )

mousedown = true;

inside mousemove,

Code: ( text )

if (mousedown)
{
....
}

Partial Codes:

Code: ( text )

<head>
<title>Untitled Page</title>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
var lLeft = 0;
var lTop = 0;
var mousedown;
function mouseDragImage(obj)
{
....
var dLeft, dTop;
var ev = window.event;
// if (window.event.button == 1)
// if (ev.button == 1)
// if (mousedown)
// if (mousedown == 'true')
if (mousedown == 1)
{
if(ev.pageX || ev.pageY){
newx = ev.pageX;
newy = ev.pageY;
}
else
{
newx = ev.clientX;
newy = ev.clientY;
}
.....
}
}
function mousedown()
{
// mousedown = 'true';
// mousedown = true;
if (mousedown != null || mousedown > 0)
{
mousedown = 1;
}
}
function mouseup()
{
// mousedown = 'false';
// mousedown = false;
mousedown = 0;
}
.....
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="Text1" type="text" /><br />
<img id="Img3" name="Img3" src="images/rock.jpg" onmouseover="mouseOver(this)" onmousedown="mousedown()" onmousemove="mouseDragImage(this)" onmouseout="mouseup()"/><br /><br />
<input id="Button1" type="button" value="button" />
</body>

Hi, I'm having this problem with getElementBy********
I have an xmlhttprequest call which works as far as

Code: ( text )

something = http.responseText.split("||");

the request is calling a php script which queries a database giving me two variables $numfields and $numrows, and two arrays, array1[] and array2[][], self-explantory. When I try to assign the two variables using getElementByName, or when I try to assign either array using getElementById I get the same error "Object doesn't support this property or method"

Code: ( text )

numrows = result.getElementByName("numrows").innerHTML;
numfields = result.getElementByName("numfields").innerHTML;
array1 = something.getElementById("array1").innerHTML;

All my text fields have ID's. Does anyone have any insight into this?

Post your HTML code (your text fields).
