Hi Evertjan:

    Now I think I understand:

    My post contained the following:

            getobj("isubfrm").submit() ;

            (which may give hints of iframes  I guess ...)

    But the getobj() function is just a function that I use to shorten the 
statement  'document.getElementById("isubfrm") '   where the "isubfrm" is 
the ID of the <form> element.  i.e.

        function getobj(cID) {
            return document.getElementById(cID) ;
        }

    This save me a lot of typing time and reduces my chance of typos.

    ... and there are no iframes involved -- as far as I know ...
