Which lightbox, and which version of Prototype? This error means that you're asking IE to do something (usually) that's part of the extended Prototype canon, but you're asking it on an object which has not been extended by Prototype yet. Normal JavaScript engines don't need this bit of coddling -- adding a method to the prototype of one element adds it to all of them. But IE doesn't follow those rules, so each element that you act on needs to be passed through a function which explicitly copies all of the Prototype.js methods into it before it can be used. The difference between your code working and not will be subtle, as in the difference between $(element) and element.

ok, well as i said i was not a javascript guru, but i think i may have
found the issue after going through the IE debugger... it appears that
lightbox that i'm using is causing the issue with an endless loop or
something which is causing the stack overflow. and it is the reason
for the handler not defined... when i got rid of lightbox all the
issues went away. I don't know enough about javascript to figure out
how to make it work properly but i am smart enough to get rid of
something that is broke. So no more lightbox. I can prolly make me a
simple modal window for my needs... if not, i will just go the old
fashion way of doing things :(

anyways, if anyone wants to look into what i found i can post more
information about such as the lines i found the errors on.

thanks for your time guys/gals
