error in text file?

[tim.thelion]

http://mysite.verizon.net/res8szeo/reader has three javascript errors in text files and I just can't figure out why.

What do you do with responseText then??

[tim.thelion]

what do you mean?
I split it. then I put it in an array.
then I search the array
but the errors are in the text files themselves. (I am using firefox)

Opera tells a different story:

JavaScript - http://mysite.verizon.net/res8szeo/reader/
Inline script thread
Error:

name: TypeError

message: Statement on line 15: Could not convert undefined or null to object
Backtrace:
  Line 15 of linked script http://mysite.verizon.net/res8szeo/reader/reader.js

    while (! (words[i].indexOf(currentword.innerHTML + " ") === 0))
      Line 6 of inline#1 script in http://mysite.verizon.net/res8szeo/reader/

    definecurrentword();

while(!(words[i].indexOf(currentword.innerHTML+" ") === 0))
	{
		i++;
		if(i===words.length)break;
	}

That should be:

while(!(words[i].indexOf(currentword.innerHTML+" ") === 0))
	{
		i++;
		if(i===words.length-1)break;
	}

Even better, use a for loop:

for(var i = 0; i < words.length && words[i].indexOf(currentword.innerHTML.toString() + " ") !== 0; ++i) {}

I made some changes. It would apeare that the getellementbyid function is returning null for some reason. so as you can see, I played around with that a bit, with no luck though. now I am really confuses, because opera is giving me errors in commented out code.
