RSS displaybox: document.getElementById bug in IE8?

[flapane]

1) Script Title:
RSS Displaybox

2) Script URL (on DD):

3) Describe problem:
Hi,
it seems that Internet explorer 8 gives a runtime error at line 134 of rssdisplaybox.js

document.getElementById(this.boxid).innerHTML=rsscontent

if the output is embedded in <li> tags, while it works flawlessy in Firefox. If I delete the <li> tags it works well in IE8 too, but I need them for css customizing purposes. I have found similar problems on Google, so it seems that IE8 sometimes really has a problem with this line of code.

See the example:

<ul class="news_side" >
<li id='LastTwits'>
<script type="text/javascript">
//MAIN FUNCTION: rssdisplaybox("rssfeed_id", "rssbox_id", "rssbox_class")
var showbbc=new rssdisplaybox("miotweet", "bbcid", "bbcclass")
showbbc.set_items_shown(4)
showbbc.set_template("titlesdatestwitter") //Use "titles" template, which outputs title + category
showbbc.start() //Required: start script
</script>
</li>
</ul>

#LastTwits li img {
	border: 0px;
	height: 34px;
	width: 34px;
	float: right;
	margin-left: 10px;
	margin-bottom: 10px;
	display: none;
}

#LastTwits li {
	list-style-image:url("/img/freccia_twit.png");
}

The above code is working at http://www.flapane.com/


Any hints?
Thanks!

bump.
It's a pity that IE is the only browser who is constantly giving problems since its early releases.

Fixed in IE9 (which doesn't seem bad at all)
