Solution

  • The prototype.js code is most likely fine, it's probably a setStyle() call on an element that doesn't exist.

    If you use Internet Explorer 8, press F12 to open the developer tools. Change to the "script" tab and then find the Stack Trace. The stack trace will show you the point where the offending setStyle() call was made. That might already give you a hint wnat's wrong; if it doesn't, come back with that info.

    You can do the same with Firefox and Firebug.
