IE error Unable to modify the parent Please help

[garethhall]

I have the code below and works fine in firefox ans safari but I get an IE error. Can you guys tell me way?

 

As far as I can tell the error is caused by appendChild()

 

Many thanks

 

<script type="text/javascript">
var theNo = Math.floor(Math.random()*9999);
var spm = document.createElement('input');
spm.setAttribute('type','hidden');
spm.setAttribute('name','spamHidden');
spm.setAttribute('id','spamHidden');
spm.setAttribute('value',theNo);
document.getElementById('frm').appendChild(spm);
</script>

It's possible that the script is running before the form has finished closing ( /form ).  IE doesn't much like appending child elements to one that's currently in the process of being written.  Try moving the script after /form
