Jon,
Tried your method and still got:
*Error: Object doesn't support this property or method.
Code: 0*

I'm no JavaScript expert, but I could maybe suggest an alternate method:
use document.getElementById() or document.getElementsByName()
AFAIK, the direct document.xyz doesn't work exactly the same way accross
browsers (if at all).
e.g. (WARNING! TOTALLY UNTESTED CODE!)
function checkInputValue(item,onError) {
if (item = document.getElementsByName(item)[0]) {
if (item.value != "") {
return(true);
}
}
alert(onError);
item.focus();
return(false);
}
function checkForm() {
elements = new Array('cc_phone_number');
errors = new Array('Please enter a phone number');
for (i=0;i<elements.length;i++) {
if (!checkInputValue(elements[i],errors[i])) {
return(false);
}
}
document.getElementsByName('inputForm')[0].submit();
}
