Object Expected Error in Internet Explorer

I've got a web page that works just fine in Firefox but not in IE 8.  It includes HTML that looks like this:

<a href="#" onclick="myFunc(0);">Call myFunc</a>

and in my JavaScript, it includes something like this:

function myFunc(num) {
alert("got here");
}

In Firefox, clicking on the link displays the alert.  In Internet Explorer, it produces an "Object expected" error.

I did a little poking around and I learned that myFunc is not defined in IE.

Documentum

I really don't like the implementation of Documentum at my current employer.

Today, Documentum doesn't like me either.  When I click on the name of a file that I used to be able to view, it shows me a blank Internet Explorer page.  Bummer.

UPDATED RESOLUTION:

iTunes - Synchronize at a Scheduled Time

I wanted my iTunes to synch (or 'sync' if you prefer) with my iPhone at 7:20 each morning.  NPR updates its A.M. news podcast at 7:15, and I leave for work at 7:30.  Since I take the subway, I can't listen to the news via radio, so I wanted to get my news via podcast.

I couldn't find a way to do this without programming, so I wrote a little Windows program to start iTunes, and tell iTunes to start synchronizing.
