This is all known an expected.  Which is why fillForm() doesn't run  
until document.loaded is true  
(http://api.prototypejs.org/dom/document/loaded/).

However, fillForm() now relies on things initialized by onDomLoad(),  
and it is possible that onDomLoad() is run after fillForm().  So looks  
like we need a check for that.
