Javascript to work with XHTML

ITquestITquest
in JavaScript
I have the following code, which validates correctly as XHTML Transitional:

[code]<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">



Untitled Document

function showNumber() {
//display the current date and time
document.clockform.number.value = 5;
}




Today's number:



[/code]

However, I want to convert my document to XHTML Strict, so I decided to remove the "name" attribute and only use the "id" attribute instead. Here is what I changed:
[code]

Today's number:

[/code]

But now, my Javascript code doesn't work anymore. There is no number displayed on the text field. How do I get my Javascript code to work without using the name attribute?
