IDs should not be duplicated. Ideally, should use class names:
<div class="homeAddress">
<div class="addrsModuleFromSomeone">.....</div>
</div>
<div class="officeAddress">
<div class="addrsModuleFromSomeone">.....</div>
</div>
The use (note the period instead of pound symbol):
$$('.addrsModuleFromSomeone').length
// Result should be '2'
Using the same IDs leads to unpredictable behavior by the web
browser. ID implies a unique identifier, whereas class describes the
tag, which makes more sense in this case.

Hi,
I have two element ID's same as below unfortunately....
<div id="homeAddress">
<div id="addrsModuleFromSomeone">.....</div>
</div>
<div id="officeAddress">
<div id="addrsModuleFromSomeone">.....</div>
</div>
When I do $$('#addrsModuleFromSomeone').length in firefox I get 2 but
I get only one in IE...
And also only in IE (ff it works fine)...
$$('#homeAddress #addrsModuleFromSomeone') gives me the aoddress
element....
$$('#officeAddress #addrsModuleFromSomeone') gives me null....
I cannot change the id of the addrsModule id since someone else had
written it.
Can some help me with this?
Regards,
Hari
