Try using a different name for your inputs besides width and height.  
There are dozens of reserved words in IE that will cause such problems 
when used as names or ids (e.g. length, tags, item, etc.).  see

You may also be able to access them using the more explicit 
"this.elements['width'].value" syntax.
