/*
micro-API for writing cross-browser DHTML.
  use this function to gain access
  to the HTML element you want to influence.

It will pass you the HTML element you asked for,
  regardless of browser DOM.
_________________________________________  

==>  element must have a proper ID  <==
_________________________________________

  and, if your script must work in Netscape 4,
  should have a position defined in the style sheet.
 (+if Netscape 4 NESTED layers wanted, get more script, this is not enough then)

 	 
  usage:
  var x = new getObj('layername');
  
  what happens?
  function creates a new JavaScript object x.
    It goes through all possible DOMs
    and if it finds the one that the browser supports
    it sets this.obj and this.style.
       The *this* keyword makes sure that the two properties
       obj and style are added to the new object x.  
  
    object x:
    merely a container for its two properties:
		1. .obj, giving access to the actual HTML element.
		         use this property to read out or set anything else than styles.
		         [ alert(x.obj.id) näyttäisi id:n ]
		2. .style, giving access to the styles of the HTML element.
		         use this property to read out or set the styles of the element.
		         [ x.style.top = '20px'; changes the top coordinate ]
