I have firefox 21.0. For some reason, it's not resizing html elements with Javascript. When I use getElementById, it ignores the changes I try to make.

I've tried resizing and repositioning the element with this code:
<pre><nowiki>widthPercentage = screen.availWidth / 800;
heightPercentage = (screen.availHeight / 600);
squareLeft = (124* widthPercentage);
squareTop = 202;
if (document.getElementById)
TEMPO = document.getElementById('SQUARE');
TEMPO.style.left = (124 * widthPercentage);
I've tried with this code:
squareTop = 202;
squareLeft = (124 * widthPercentage);
starterWidth = (495 * widthPercentage);
starterHeight = (99 * heightPercentage);
TEMPO = '<DIV ID="SQUARE" STYLE="position:absolute; left:squareLeft; top:squareTop; visibility:visible;">';
TEMPO += '<P>';
TEMPO += '<img name="screenTitle_box" ID="STARTER" src="ARTWORK/FRONT_SCREEN_TITLE_5.JPG" HEIGHT=starterHeight WIDTH=starterWidth>';
TEMPO += '</P>';
TEMPO += '</DIV>';
document.getElementById('SQUARE').innerHTML = TEMPO;
Neither way works. But the same code works in Internet Explorer.
Here's the element I'm trying to manipulate:
<DIV ID="SQUARE" STYLE="position:absolute; left:333px; top:10px; visibility:visible;">
<P>
<img name="screenTitle_box" ID="STARTER" src="ARTWORK/PICTURE_5.JPG" HEIGHT="150" WIDTH="900">
</P>
</DIV></nowiki></pre>
