Change DIV Min-Height Dynamically

I need my script to detect the height of the viewable area of the window, then set the min-height CSS property of my div (id="wrapper") to equal that amount, essentially extending the div to the very bottom of the viewable area. My script works in Firefox, Opera, and Safari, but I'm getting "invalid argument" errors from IE and AOL about the last line of code before the final bracket. I'd love some help.

function findLivePageHeight() {
if (window.innerHeight) {
return window.innerHeight;
}
if (document.body.clientHeight) {
return document.body.clientHeight;
}
return (null);
}

var livePageHeight = findLivePageHeight();

function changeHeight() {
var object = document.getElementById('wrapper');
object.style.minHeight = livePageHeight + 'px';
}

Hello j2trumpet!

min-height isn't supported by older versions of IE. What version did you test in?
