"It sounds like the site has a Javascript browser sniffer program that fails to open in the Fire Fox browser."
Thank you. I will also pass your guidance on to my son.
As I said, Freepers are the best.
Just looked at the source code. There is no sniffer unless it is being accessed by a remote script.
This script may be the problem although I'm week on Javascript
function validateSearch(theForm){
if(theForm.q5.value.length < 3){
alert("you must enter a valid search!");
theForm.q5.focus();
return false;
}
return true;
}
The script tells you that your keyword must be greater than three letters. I don't think thats the problem.
The focus parameter has been known to be very buggy depending on the browser.
After teaching me how to script in layers using the Span ID tag, my Iranian Javascript instructor told me to forget about layers.
It incourages you to build slow loading pages that only a small number of computers can see.
The rule for websites, still is KISS.
