If you have a HTML dosument where a script element is loaded from a source file,
When the referenced file tries to getElementByID for an element that it has
added using document.write a null will be returned.
thats a **** explanation so here's a test case.
<!--TESTCASE -->
<!-- main html file -->
<html>
<head><title>Mozilla Bug</title>
</head>
<body>
<script language="JavaScript" src="test.js"></script>
<script>
document.write('<div id="testing1234">this is a testdiv</div>');
if(document.getElementById("testing1234")==null){
document.write("Mozilla failed test<br>");
}else{
document.write("Mozilla passed test<br>");
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
<!-- test.js -->
document.write('<div id="testing123">this is a testdiv</div>');
if(document.getElementById("testing123")==null){
document.write("Mozilla failed test<br>");
}else{
document.write("Mozilla passed test<br>");
}

Confirming with Mozilla trunk build 2000122105 on WinNT. I saved the
main HTML file, and the JS file as "test.js". After altering the text
of each to identify things more clearly, I got this output from the test:
This is a <DIV> element that has been document.written inside test.js
Mozilla failed test
This is a <DIV> element that has been document.written inside main HTML file-
Mozilla passed test
Browser, not engine ---> DOM Level 0
