Looping Array Of Objects In IE6?

Well let's say i have a bunch of div tags with name attribute 'hello'

<div name='hello'></div>
<div name='hello'></div>
<div name='hello'></div>

I want to use JavaScript so that i can look through the array of these div objects.

var helloDivs = document.getElementByName('hello');
var len = helloDivs.length;
.....

So, it works for all the recent version of browsers but not for IE6. There is still about a 10% market share who are still using IE6. What is the workaround for this browser support?

If i were to print the variable len in IE6 says that is 0 and if i print helloDivs, it says it is an object as if helloDivs is a variable that contains an object but not an array of objects.
