Others have commented on a few of the misinterpretations in the code. All

The best advice I can give anyone using JS is to go for the excellent
O'Reilly reference:

http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/jscript4/index.html

and you could do worse than have the DHTML reference to had as well:

http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/dhtmlref2/index.html

Superb references if you want more than a lightweight quick-and-dirty
understanding of each.

For a decent JS website try
