Mark,

I also have a lot of problems using Javascript in IE4 and IE5, and also
with frames (target="_blank" will not work at all in IE) ... In Netscape
everything works fine but not in IE.

Finally I gave it up and put a remark on the first page "best seen with
Netscape".
(You may give me a hit at http://www.hillschmidt.de)

On the other hand, we're not alone: check http://www.toshiba.de, navigation
in Netscape and IE ... the navigator window pops up fine in Netscape but IE
returns with a Javascript error ..

It's not a solution but just another hint that IE is not the best ...

Best regards, Andreas

Are there any Javascript gurus lurking out there?
I've got an html form with three frames on it - top, left and right. In a
JS
function in the right frame, I want to access the selected value of a
drop-down
box in the left frame but hit a security violation ("Permission denied").
I'm
using IE4.
Logically, this seems quite a reasonable security check but does anyone
have any
ideas on how to circumvent it?
TIA.
Mark W.
