I am having a problem getting two javascript snippets to run on a single
html document. Whichever one is loaded last (further down in the html doc)
runs fine. I am not any kind of javascript expert and would appreciate any
help here.

Thanks

-------------------------------------------

The two examples of the html doc are here:

http://216.122.129.151/javascript-conflict1.html

http://216.122.129.151/javascript-conflict2.html

--------------------------------------------

Alternatively I reproduce the two snippets here.
