Here is what i found
http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/w3c_core.html#microsoft
Scroll down to getElementsByName() section
According to it the getElementsByName() is supported pretty well,
except some minor things whcih is usually not the case anyway.
Like in Opera <div id='name'> will be returned as well..
So you just need to make sure that you do not have extra tags with the
same id as the name you assigned to your radio control.
