Yeah guys, Thanks for responses.
I understand now it's not Mootools, but wonderful IE (sarcasm), and improper coding, as I have already noted in the code review. I never saw this before as I have never tried to reference an element this way, nor until today seen any other dev do it this way. Chrome should know better NOT to emulate IE garbage, I'm disappointed in them. Gafa.
