Dojo In Seaside Problem with Select List

I'm fairly new to Seaside, Dojo, etc... I'm posting this on both Dojo and this
forum because I don't know where my problem is...anyway, I'm having trouble
getting the selected value from a list.
renderContentOn: html
    html div
        class: 'MyPanel';
        with: [
            html select
            id: 'dailyDates';
            list: (self dates);
            selected: (self currentDailyDate);
            callback: [ :value |
                self currentDailyDate: value ];
            onChange: (
                (html jQuery ajax)
                    script: [ :s |
s add: (JSStream new nextPutAll: ('var dateList = dijit.byId("dailyDates");
alert( dateList );'); yourself).
 ] )
        ]
I always get an alert with "undefined" in it. For sanity, (that's
questionable....), I've tried just setting var dateList = 5 and then my alert
displays "5" as expected. For now, I'm not worried about not trying to get the
selected value - I can't seem to find the component...any ideas? Thanks

My guess (based on my experience with JQuery rather than Dojo), is that the line: 'dijit.byId' isn't working?

Thanks for the reply Nick. I am using Firebug and I don't see any errors on the
console. When I type dijit.byId("dailyDates") - and all variations (#, ',
etc...) - on the console, I still get undefined. What really confuses me is that
I can easily find other ids - either on the console on in javascript.
