Edit Answer left for context. See @Triptych's (accepted) answer for the correct resolution.
My suggestion is to move the inclusion of the javascript to the end of your mark up. I think what is happening is that the code is executing before the DOM is completely loaded and thus the document.body is null when you try to reference it in determining the maxHeight style property. Moving the inclusion of the javascript to the end of your markup should be enough to guarantee that the body of the document is loaded at least and avoid this particular error.
... rest of html....
<script type='text/javascript'

</script>
</body>
</html>
