Javascript Calendar

Hi All

I am having some problems with a javascript calendar I have. I really like it and want to carry on using it, however there seems to be a problem with it with different browsers.

Firstly, I created a small page to show the problem (below) and the popcalendar.js file attached as code.

Firstly, with IE the <body onload = "insertfields('Automaticly inserted');"> does not put the text into the field as required, however the calendar works perfectly.

With FX, the <body onload = "insertfields('Automaticly inserted');"> puts the text into the field perfectly, but the calendar does not display when the input box is clicked. The calendar does work with FX if I take the <body onload = "insertfields('Automaticly inserted');"> out, however the calender is always displayed in the top left of the page and not belwo the field like in IE.

So I need 2 things:
1) The body onload must work with both IE and FX and insert the field properly.
2) With FX, the calendar must be displayed below the input field like in IE.

I have really been struggling with this and dont know what it is. I would assing more than 500 points if I could.

Thanks in advance.
Leon
