This is just a sample of the code, there are alot more functions, but I thought the error might be related to surrounding code. I have absolutely no idea why, as I know all the surrounding functions execute, and First_Array is populated.

However when I click the Proceed to Second button, the onclick attribute does not execute because Firebug says proceedToSecond is not a function

button code:

<input type="button" id="proceed" name="proceedToSecond" onclick="proceedToSecond();" value="Proceed to second form">
