UnKnown Runtime Error apex_3_1.js in IE

Question

Hi ,
I have 2 OnLoad Javascript functions which is working perfectly fine in Firefox but throws the <b>UnKnown Runtime Error apex_3_1.js in IE </b>
in IE8.
I am not sure what exactly is causing this error, the scripts are as below :
function set_readonly()
for (var i = 0; i < document.getElementsByName('f07').length; i++)
//document.getElementsById('f07').value
var pk_id = document.getElementsByName('f05')[i];
var curr_id = document.getElementsByName('f07')[i];
var curr_id2 = document.getElementsByName('f10')[i];
var curr_id3 = document.getElementsByName('f11')[i];
var curr_id4 = document.getElementsByName('f12')[i];
var curr_id5 = document.getElementsByName('f13')[i];
     if ($x(pk_id).value == 2)
//alert(curr_id2.value);
          $d_ClearAndHide(curr_id);
          $x_Hide(curr_id2);
          $d_ClearAndHide(curr_id3);
$x_Hide(curr_id4);
$x_Hide(curr_id5);
     else
          $x_Show(curr_id);
          $x_Show(curr_id2);
          $x_Show(curr_id3);
$x_Show(curr_id4);
$x_Show(curr_id5);
function set_readonly2()
for (var i = 0; i < document.getElementsByName('f07').length; i++)
//document.getElementsById('f07')[i].value
     var pk_id = document.getElementsByName('f05')[i];
     var curr_id = document.getElementsByName('f07')[i];
     var curr_id2 = document.getElementsByName('f14')[i];
     if ($x(pk_id).value == 3)
          $d_ClearAndHide(curr_id);
$x_Hide(curr_id2);
I am calling these functions in the HTML body attribute as :
onload="javascript:set_readonly();set_readonly2();"
Has anybody faced a similar issue? Is there an error in one of my function calls ? appreciate any help in this regard.
Thanks,
Dippy

Hi,
That function not clear item value.
It clears dom node content as I understand.
Probably that is reason why it do not work correctly in your case.
look apex_3_1.js
function $d_ClearAndHide(pNd){
      if($x(pNd)){pNd=[pNd];}
      for(var i=0,len=pNd.length;i<len;i++){
           var lNode = $x(pNd);
          if(lNode){$x_Hide(lNode).innerHTML = '';}
     return;
You can use custom javascript in page HTML header example
function ClearAndHideItem(pNd){
  if($x(pNd)){
    pNd=[pNd];
  for(var i=0,len=pNd.length;i<len;i++){
    var lNode = $x(pNd);
if(lNode){
$x_Hide(lNode);
$x_Value(lNode, '');
