I think it is a known issue. IE has different way to load the HTML into DOM and for some reason, getElementById() call is not working.

Is there a JIRA for this?  I couldn't find one.  Also, the call that
is failing isn't the DOM getElementByID() method, but a function
elementByID() in utils.js.  The code is:

function elementByID(node, id) {
    for (var i in node.childNodes) {
        var child = node.childNodes[i];
        if (child.id == id) {
            return child;
        } else {
            child = elementByID(child, id);
            if (child != null) {
                return child;
            }
        }
    }
    return null;
}

Would I perhaps have more luck if I changed this code to use the
DOM getElementByID() call?

Subject: Domain Manager UI doesn't work with IE7

I can't get the Tuscany domain manager UI to work in an IE7 browser
window because of Javascript errors.

For example, if I browse to http://localhost:9990/ui/workspace, I
get the following error:

Line: 44
Char: 2
Error: 'toolbarDiv' is null or not an object
Code: 0
URL: http://localhost:9990/ui/workspace/toolbar-gadget.html

From looking at this location in toolbar-gadget.html, it seems that
the elementByID() function call is returning null instead of the
correct object.

If I use Firefox instead of IE, everything is fine.

Can anyone throw any light on this error?  Has enyone been able to
get the domain manager to work with IE?
