Error : 'innerHTML" null or not an object

Happy New Year everyone !

Does anyone knows what cause this error stated on the subject line above ? This is shown when I click on the a small yellow ! warning on the right bottom corner of a web page and I can't get to use SOME of the interactive funcions on those websites.

This only happens on my Sony computer, but not a problem on the Fujitsu. Both laptops have the same programs and software installed.

This problem started after I reinstalled XP Pro. I've not had this problem before and works without any problems on both laptops.

Google said this is a Javascript error. But the programming is foreign to me. I don't even know how to access the Javascript. Anyone knows how to fix this easily or have a software to fix this ? I've run the trial version of System Mechanic which is said to be fully functional. But no luck !

Any help is greatly appreciated as this is a annoying problem when using some website functions.

Oh btw, I am using IE7 and XP Pro SP3

Many thanks

Post a link to a site where you get the error.

Provide a detailed list of the "differences" you see/don't see betwwen the two computers you mentioned.

I get an error right here on this page and NEVER give it a second thought unless I can read something on the site....The error could easily be related to the ads.

But in your case - is the error bad enough to spend hours on trying to resolve it knowing in advance you might not ever resolve it?

This is one of the links while searching for answers to resolve the problem. But it only came up on my Sony

The error is similar, but varies slightly from one website to another.

The problem with this is that although it does not interfer with most of the functioning of the site, it does prevent you from participating on some interactive function as the functions does not work. You are lucky that despite having similar error on this page, it still allows you to post forums here. Some sites will not let this happen which is the annoying thing.

I'm also hoping the fix will not take too much time if anyone knows of a software to install or if it is my incorrect installation of one of my softwares which can easily be uninstalled and reinstalled. Fingers crossed !

That webpage is coded incorrectly. There are three errors that the webmaster(s) need to fix:

My older version of Portable FireFox doesn't report any errors.

But IE8 reports the same errors as Doc's.

Works fine with Firefox.

When I use my Fujitsu laptop, also with IE7, I don;t get any error either. But on my Sony, also with IE7 I get the error. So anyone knows why or how to fix ?

Always use your laptop;)

Have you Disabled Debugging? And taken the check out of Notification?

Have checked. Both the debug options were NOT selected (NOT Ticked)
