the value of a name attribute does not need to be unique, where as the value
of the id attribute _MUST_ be unique (according to the specs) ....
document.getElementsByName('name');
^-----------------------notice the 's'
that method returns an array of elements.
out of interest there is also:
document.getElementsByTagName('INPUT');
which also returns an array.
note that these DOM methods will not work in some older browsers, you
may not care but if you do you will probably want to look into
finding a browser compatibility library (some code) that will patch the
problem for you.
