Is there an issue with using document.getElementById inside of a behavior? It doesn't seem to return a valid object when called within the behavior, but it works fine outside in a normal JS file.

Ideas?

A behavior is a bit of JavaScript assigned to an element via CSS. It's a handy way of encapsulating and applying common code. Unfortunately, there seem to be some quirks to their use.

I did manager to find the issue: using "document" on its own resolves to the document contained in the HTC file itself. Use "element.document" to reference the document containing the element to which the behavior is applied.
